hey everyone, i picked up a 95 cobra hood for 100 bucks and also got the white face gauges cheap too!! it was off a salvage, my car is blue and the hood is gloss black, but it really doenst look all that bad on it, anyways..i got the gauges cuz they were cheap and i thought it matched up....both had redline at 6,000 but..closer inspection..the cobra tach went to 7,000 and mine goes to 8,000 so dammit i cant use them! lol i have an automatic so i guess i could..since i dont use the tach really but..better not..anyways i dont want this to be a whole awaste of a deal so the temp, volt, gas, and oil meter should all be the same right?? i could use them i guess at least..and does anyone know after u pull the needles off does it go back to normal when u plug the whole system in? thanks also can any moderators tell me how to change my singnature..i got a few add ons ot add to it and i cant find a way on the homepage

I know if you have it professionally done it will work just fine. I was thinking about getting the Cobra face gauges for my car, and looked and the whole redlining thing... Since i have an auto i was gonna get some when i had the money. But as long as MPH isnt different your okay!

what kind of car did u have venemouss or do have i mean? i think the MPH is the same..both goes to 150 but it seems there might be a bit more space between the marks...should i just use the temp and such?

thats such a tite lookin hood, i believe thats from the 96-98 though.. I want one of those hoods!!
it might be...maybe he replaced it..i know its a 5.0 orginally becuz the instrument cluster that came out of it says 5.0 and i know they didnt make them after 95! lol so maybe it is and he replaced his..yeah it is tight!! altho its black it looks good on my atlantic blue gt, i want to cut out the bottom of it so i know it wont do much but either relieve some hot engine air out of the car or let some cool fresh air in to help cool things down, prolly gain a half a horse but it will be functional! lol venoumouse what year is your friends gt..after close inspection i dont think any of those gages will work, well correctly or look right on my 98...that sucks...i dunno tho
