    In my 82 REGAL the 2 lower optional gauge pods is where I'm putting 2 aftermartket gauges, where the factory ones would be, mounted to the face of the optional gauge surfaces, behind the glass. I bought the optional gauge cluster off eBay for $5, using it for the parts.

    I'll post pictures when it's finished.

    While we're talking about gauge clusters, can anyone tell me if this one is unique to the T-type, or if all '83 Regals had this cluster design. It looks very different than the ones posted on gnxdash.com

    thats pretty much what they looked like from 78-83 but you have
    the extra gauges ,temp and boost for turbo cars
    84 up they changed design

    Ok, that's good to know that the gauge cluster housing isn't some rare turbo-specific piece. I'll probably pick up a spare one from a junkyard to put together my aftermarket gauges when the time comes.

    Bought a turbo cluster on eBay for $5, used the 2 lower optional gauge pods for my aftermarket gauges, then installed them into my my V8 Regal standard cluster...
