If you have an "02 with the seat belt warning light atop the dash...find a gauge pod to fit in its place. Much better gauge location, as you don't have to take your eyes off the road to look at 'em.

You can fasten the gauge pod to the existing mounting holes in the dash, and feed the wires through the large hole under the seat belt sign...

I've been enjoying mine set up that way since about 1987...

VDO gauges I believe they were the Vision series, bought some years ago. White pointers match the OEM gauges, back lit and gauges are labeled as to their function.

Just another option. For those of us with the older, 'silver dollar' gauges a better match would be the Series 1 from VDO. They have white letters and dials. I'm planning to use a few for my project.
