Once all was laid out it was time to cut the holes

 

I wanted a red back ground ,so laid a piece of red plastic over the first piece,also giving more strength

 

Then it was time to fit all the gauges in place & start the wiring,tying all into the stock wires. New senders were in place @ the other end
I have a Electrical Diagram book from Toyota that is very usefull

 

The finished product,ready to install
The wiring is soldered & shrink wrapped,I used connectors between the cluster & dash for ease removal .
Hope this is useful info.

 

Top notch info, great build-up, such dedication, its truley a privelage to see your work in action ( before and after )

 

Thank you! It's all about detail & doing thing right,or @ right as I can!
A photo shoot is in the works with Mini Truick'in Magazine,02/28-29/09

She's not perfect,but 99% garage built & by me!

 

Wow man that looks STELLAR! Love it! I have the Factory Toyota Wiring book too! Great thing to have. Helped with the 7M swap.

Question tho. What did you have to do to get the Spedo working and accurate?

 

very nice man. i did my dash in black trunk liner.....that was a PITA, but looks cool.
I like the cluster, what does it look like all lit up?

 

A company named Speedometer Service,www.speedometersolutions.com
4144636660
has a speed sensor that is electrical output,& threads directly on the trans!
Part number #HE22C, WHEN i BOUGHT IT IT WAS $92.50 PLUS SHIPPING
It will work with most after market speedos. The Autometer, you can calibrate.

 

Will shoot some photo's of lit,& post on this same topic
