    Default Correct Dash Gauge

    I was wondering what the correct dash gauge was for a 1985 mustang GT.

    Alot of the GT's that I have seen come with this type of gauge:

    but mine looks like this:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Musta...11699879QQrdZ1

    Which one is correct. I like the first one better. It looks cleaner to me but I dont want to put that one in my car if it is not correct for my year/trim. My car is an A/C car and I dont know if that makes much of a difference. It also has cruise control as well.

    Comments/suggestions?

    The second one you listed (the one in your car) with the faux machine screws is the 84-86 GT/RS one.

    The first is the LX/GS one. Most people toss it and opt for the GT one.

    The top link was for an LX, but the one you have is correct for a GT.

    Fast responses! I would much rather it be orginal and thats the way I intend to keep it. Looks like I'm keeping the GT dash. Thanks for clearing it up for me.
