    Blu, that sounds just about how it is...Way too many wires and tubes running all around on my car (see new thread I started regarding ugly wires...)

    Even then, my gauge has the compression fitting for the brass or plastic line, so I still had to put in a small chunk of brass with a fitting to up it to the AN connection.

    I will be changing all the gauges when (If I ever) build a new dash. I want all the gauges right behind the steering wheel, in a dash cluster. Not all over the glove box, radio hole, on the hood, etc.

    When I do that, I will probably reinvent my wheel and go to whatever setup I can that will minimize wiring and tubing...somehow. I have a long time to think about that.

    Not for years, and not if I can help it. Always hated that show. But sometimes, when I was home sick from school, that was all that was on...
