Moving gauges in Renix cluster
I was thinking(lol) that I would like to have the coolant temp gauge under the oil pressure gauge in the cluster. This would swap the volt meter with the coolant temp gauge. Having never pulled the instrument cluster out, would this be relatively straight forward? Don't laugh too loud
Happy New Year!

Sorry Greg...I don't think you are gonna pull that one off without some ridiculously serious dedication.
I will add though...My new to me 90, the crossbar on the steering wheel always seems to be blocking what I want to see. Since it looks like I'm going to be messing with the steering anyway, (toe-in), I may well intentionally set the wheel "different", so it's not blocking my view.

Well, OK then. I'll just adjust the tilt so I can see the upper gauges better. Thanks you!
