Did the gauge/dashboard conversion over the weekend
...and I don't believe that would have been unlawful. At the time, I didn't realize it was so easy to just swap out the speedo/odo module from one cluster to the other.

I agree, I don't recall ever seeing it either but I think, as a community, things would go much smoother if we treated each other with respect.

I guess when I saw over 1400 pages of wheel and tires posts, I figured it wouldn't be that bad to post one more about a dashboard. The dashboard is as much tech as putting on a new set of wheels and tires I reckon and it might show someone else that it can be done to their own vehicle who might have never considered it before.

I understand that it probably gets old seeing the same thing for those of you who have been here for quite a while, but it was new to me and I guess I thought that was what it was about. Because let's face it, there is not much of actual, new stuff being done. From what I can see, its all just variations.

Huh, I thought this was in the lines of oem tech as its is a original part(guage cluster) just from another jeep. And mod tech was more for the tachs from other rigs, aftermarket, and lifts and such, and fab was where you do welding and body works and such? Or was I thinking naxja and pirate? Lol

It's all good. OEM TECH is more oriented towards general maintenance, diagnostics and repair. As said his model had "dummy lights" so he swapped/modified his cluster to accept real gauges. Besides, if it really was in the wrong section we would have moved it.

Nice way to shoot a man down. I feel you. It makes you feel good even when the slightest of things are done. Good upgrade, anything is better than idiot lights.
