Vz SV6 with statesman/caprice front end.
With your Oil pressure gauge what size fitting did you use for the sender?

i wouldn't mind getting something similar in my car, but with with in car air temp and one with a clock..

Bizzy, it is totally worth doing and does look great.

Meh I don't know what the standards globes are. I'll just take a picture of them. They are brand new and I took them out as soon as I bought the LED strip lights.

The ones with the cable are your foggies.

Thanks again GoodTimes for all your help.

SVTato, Unfortunately I have no idea. I got the gauges professionally installed and do not know what fitting was used. I do have a picture below that shows the sender if that is any more useful.

I went for a drive the other day and took some photos of the car along the way.

Thanks Bizzy, it has really come together in the last year. I am really pleased with it.

In other news I am looking for some thoughts and ideas on my rear tweeter (pictured below, it is actually the one in the other door but this is the only picture I had on hand.)

The tweeter is only pushed into the door trim to hold it in place. This tweeter has since come loose and falls out over time. So I am after ideas to hold it in place without gluing it to the trim. What are other ways that installers use to hold them in place?

That tweeter looks like its in a nice spot. Might have to use that idea. :)
But to hold it in maybe sikaflex, the black sticky stuff that holds on the plastic behind your door trims.

Mmm...sikaflex, I don't really want to have to use adhesive and glue the tweeter to the trim in case I have to remove it.

Run some electrical tape around the speaker to make the diameter a bit larger and push back into the door, this should work.

Simple and a great idea. I will give it a go.
