HOW TO: Swap PP gauges into standard model

[zackmd1]

How much did you pay for the dash trim and gauges. I want to do this now! Haha.. If anyone wants to trade their pp gauges and dash trip I'll give u my premium trim for free! ;)

Haha I paid $235 for my panel and gauges. I have two panels linked above that are $350. They are in a bit better condition then my panel was so that is why they are a bit more expensive.

I have a buddy who wanted to switch me my base panel for his pp one with the gauges... Is this install going to be possible for only the gt350 gauges or can it be done with the pp as well

The install can be done with PP as well!

So, in short for us GT PP guys. Whats the final word on what we would need to get the GT350 gauges to work? More so, would those be reading the correct parameters (Temp and oil pressure) straight from the sensors?

All that is needed for current PP owners is the 350 gauge cluster. Oil pressure should read correctly while oil temp will likely be a few degrees off from true temp because of the pcm estimating temp instead of actually having a sensor to read it.

Great. Would that be plug and play or would we need to purchase an additional harness?

The temp thing is annoying, I thought there was an actual sensor to detect the oil temp.

Do it quick before he comes to his senses!

Plug and play!

Brushed aluminum finish??? I think yes!!!

Daylight pics of the brushed aluminum!

How'd you get it brushed aluminum? Payed someone to wrap it?

This whole project blows my mind. Seem waaaay too simple and relatively cheap.

Nice work!

Looks killer.

Now the wait begins to see if just the GT350 cluster becomes available like the PP, that vacuum gauge has to go.....

No wrap. The entire finish is REAL brushed aluminum. I took the 350 panel down to bare metal and then used a combination of 120 grit sand paper and a scuff pad to create the grain or brushed pattern.

I'm actually surprised it's metal and not plastic.
