f600 gauge!!

Post by hotrod ford »

had time to finally put my f600 gauge in today. i was told it should have been plug and play, but its not. my blinkers don't work or the gauges. the only thing that works are the back lights. what gives?

Ya, when I put my 67 F600 guage in my truck, I had to put my original wiring harness on it.

Those gauges look great. I should not have looked now I want a set too. :drool: I have spent more on the $600 bump in the last month than I spent on my last truck the entire time I owned it. :lol: There is a lot of cool things out there to buy for our bumps.

mugwump is there a better picture on the dash pad? It looks like it is some sort of woven fabric. I have seen that gauge set in some pictures somewhere before but I can't remember where? :?
