    Hello everyone.
    My name is David, I'm new to the forum, I write from Poland.
    I use Google translator so please forgive me if there are errors in my post.
    I made an interesting change in the dashboard of my Electra 225 from 1968 and I thought I would share it.
    (if someone has already written about it, I'm sorry, I was looking for it but I didn't find it on the forum)
    I certainly didn't just miss the real engine temperature gauge instead of the cold / hot lights. as we know in Electra 68 'there was no such indicator. Because I did not want to mount any aftermarket indicators on the board, I bought a 1968 Riviera speedometer equipped with a temperature gauge and of course a new gauge sensor. The meter itself is the same as in Electra, the differences are only electric. I was able to mount and connect the meter with Riviera 68 'in my Electra 68' and everything works great, and it looks completely original, factory electrical changes are not complicated, no new cables need to be installed. just cross the cables in places in the plug that goes to the meter and everything works.
    I will gladly insert photos but at the moment I fail
    if someone interested in this idea and wanted to apply it , I would be happy to help.
