Speedometer and tach overlays

[KilluminatiDre]

My lund tune increased my redline to 7500. Is anyone aware of any tach overlays that have a 7500 rpm redline?

replace your gauge cluster with one from a gen 3.

I did want to eventually get the digital dash but was hoping for a more economical way until then without swapping the whole cluster.

You can get the analog one on ebay for cheap if you search around.

This is what I intend to do with my Canadian 2019 GT (it comes with the gen 2 cluster for some reason). Supposedly you just need to find a cluster with less miles than you currently have, and forscan can roll it forward. Can’t go the other way though.

I came across these. Looks like it should work. Also thinking i should be able to get a gen 3 cluster and swap the tach overlay with mine and not have to swap the whole cluster.

Whole lot easier swapping clusters and no chance of breaking pointers.

Doesnt look too bad from the video usspeedo posted. I also dont have a laptop or the obd2 for FORSCAN and already bought a new lens for my current cluster. I might just give this a shot.

I’ll second this. As a Canadian car, my Mustang had a conversion done at the time it was imported by someone installing MPH overlays. The overlays are not perfect and the gas needle and speedo are slightly off center.

You don't need forscan. It will work. Only issue is you will get a collision avoidance warning when you start the car.

I wonder if they didnt properly mark the location of the needles when they removed them and just eyeballed it. I technically just need the tach side. Since my lense is already messed up thinking about just drawing a little mark at 7500 until i just get a digital dash lol

Another benefit of going with the 18 up cluster is you get the option of having a digital speed read out in the center of the cluster.

That definitely would be a nice benefit. Im kinda iffy on the whole odometer thing overall. Im leaning towards just swapping out the tach side and if the needle breaks thatll be my que to go digital.

Dang i was looking at clusters on ebay to see if i could find one with lower mileage than my 52k and everything im seeing is automatic. Im guessing people dont buy manuals like they used to.
