Dashboard cluster modification (w/ pics)

Alright, first gremlin encountered! (Not including myself

)

The voltmeter and tachometer works great, although the tach doesn't seem to be as sensitive as my T2 8k tach. I'm guessing this slight difference is due to the extra 1000 rpms and the needle movement is not as fine.

The other gauges seem to work fine. I haven't tested to see if the speedo/odometer works yet since the steering wheel is out but it should be fine.

HOWEVER. For some hilarious(?) reason, the water temperature gauge is now acting funny- it goes up and doesn't stop until it reaches the top. I'm going to pull the cluster out tomorrow and test the connections. It worked fine before so I'm curious what the culprit is. If anybody's got a clue, let me know.
