Guess while i'm logged in I should update...


Rode around for most of the week like this:






Then this morning put on the rest:






A front end swap (to be blue again) is coming, but I am saving up my money for both the 4x4 swap and for school, so like this I will stay until I can afford new Ford parts.


On a lighter note, enjoy a better picture of my new interior:






And if you are following the progress with my cluster here is the latest update:


After the dash/cluster swap I had an engine light on. It was for the gas gauge reader not working. Along with that light my "check gage" light and the light I added as a "Low Fuel" light were both on, yet my tank was full and no gauges read anything less than perfect conditions.


Time passed and the 3rd day after the swap, the check engine light is gone. The light I added however is always on and so is the "check gage" light. I can only assume I wired something wrong or read the wrong schematics. I blocked off the pin I believed to be the low gas light pin and connected the positive end of the LEDs to that and the negative side to a common ground, I can only imagine that blocking that pin is somehow powering the "check gage" light having the opposite effect of what I wanted.
