If you can get the stuff made, in quantity, at a decent price more power to you! If you can do it at a price that makes selling them at $50 each a worthwhile use of your time, that is fantastic! You'll probably sell quite a few at that level...
The 911/914 modules only fit in the stock gauge housing if you trim the corners off of them. I believe that they would overlap a bit otherwise--which leaves less than no room for the lights, so you wind up having to do some trimming... The gauge that PA Speedo and NH Speedo make (they are at least associated with each other) use smaller gauge modules than stock, so no trimming is required. Last time I checked, there were pics of the triple gauge on the PA Speedo website. I'd bet that some surfing around would find them again... --DD |

I bought 2 of the kits when they were available, and put one in Betty's car. I was going to use the other one, but I decided to go with a 911 style dash for my 914. I have the kit in the original package. It was opened to inspect the contents by a prospective buyer, but he decided he didn't want it. It's for sale, or I can build it up for you if you will supply the 911 combo gauge. I can supply the 914 gas gauge.
Price.... Make me an offer. |
Did you get my PM on the gauge kit I am interested .nein11@msn.com

The current price is $ 405 at PAS, including complete "plug and play" combo + senders + wiring

One of the 914 guys will soon be making the kits again. He built me a couple of the triple gauges and they look great.

How about a 4 gauge combo, circa 1972. Made by Hans Ritter who went on to found 'SPECMO Enterprises' in Michigan.

904 combi gauge kit
I realize this is a very old thread, but just ran across one of these kits I purchased many years ago and would like to build the combi gauge for my 914-6. I have the face plate and back plate but no instructions. Any words of wisdom from someone who has built one would be appreciated. I know I will need a core gauge, the three gauge dials and they will need to be modified. Right now my biggest question is the orientation and install of the back plate.
Thanks' in advance http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654100624.jpg |
Depending on which core gauge you get, there will be four screw holes in the back for mounting the gauge modules. You use the four small holes around the edge of the new back plate to mount it to the gauge.
Just inboard from those screw holes are holes for the various warning lights and I think also illumination lights? In the center are the holes for the gauge movements. You can see three "sets" of holes for the movements, with two of the "sets" arranged in a cross and the third "set" only having three holes in a line. IIRC the third set is for the early-style fuel gauge which does not have stuff that fits into the two other holes in the standard set of five holes. It's been a while, but I think I had to drill those other two holes to fit my 1974 fuel gauge, so all three sets of holes wound up basically the same. I suggest picking up the donor parts and looking to see how they fit onto the back plate. The face plate is a bit different; you have to pull the old face plate out of the donor gauge and cut off the mounting tabs so you can glue them onto the new face. The old is very thin (plastic?) and the new one is much thicker metal, so that's a bit of a pain. Once you get the donor parts, it should be easier to see where stuff goes. Maybe not exactly easy, but easier than it currently is. --DD |
