MC-Machine Gauge Cluster (PICS)

Well spent quite a bit of time struggling with installing these gauge (I'm color blind so figure how wiring goes)
I am very pleased with how everything looks and i am much happier knowing i now have accurate gauges, these arent the only gauges i'll be installing look for some other cobalts after i make my new center console delete plate, anywho here are da photos :D I'll have night shots when its, well, night time

Yep, that looks "totally awesome dude"!!

btw, I converted a pic I had of my wiring to black and white just for ships and jiggles..... how the hell do you do ANY wiring on your car being colorblind? I'd be scared to death just putting a radio in if I were in your shoes.

lol, being color blind doesnt mean i cant see colors. It means i cant see certain colors properly. Mostly variations of shade. Blues and purples are predominately the ones i have issue with, but sometime i have trouble with reds and pinks. But i'll have a hard time naming a color if it has any blues or purples mixed into it as well. So dont call me to help you match a car color.
 
Looks really nice! My RPM gauge is doing something really goofy...instead of the going up in RPM's it goes in reverse (even below zero). Messed up. I'm going to venture into something like this. Thanks!
 
So if I were to want to do the same thing...where would I get the setup from?

Also, how is it hooking up an electric speedo to a t5?

probably MC machines website to get their cluster and summit for whatever gauges you want. Cobalt gauges arent cheap though :(

Speedo sender was easy, 3 wires and 1 bolt and i was good to go, still need to calibrate the speedo though.

I heard i could tap into the factory VSS and make it works but frankly that is way too much work and make its easier to pull and change trannys in the future.
