Jeep Driver Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 http://www.store.dolphingauges.com/viewitem.php?productid=14 You may want to consider these, made in FL. The matching tach is also available, should fit all three...........this side of $400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Just to update this thread............. I've spent hours scouring over every conceivable combination of existing gauges, nothing other than some digital gauges that might work, just nothing that I want. I made contact with NVU today, I spoke to Micheal in the custom dept. He is willing to make a one-off 6 gauge panel to replace the stock MJ cluster. I have to do the artwork/rendering and decide on what gauge style I want. Just updating that this can be done, will be done. May take me 6 months to a year but it will happen.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro I don't know, yet. They have to send me an estimate after I send them the request form and rendering. I've looked at Speedhut's site a dozen times but I just found this page, they do make matching gauges in 3 3/8 which would fit. I contacted Speehut first, they are not willing to do one-off designs. These gauges are nice, take one to the custom page and play with it. These are a second choice. http://www.speedhut.com/gauges/3-3-8-inch/?catid=f254&i=18&p=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I want all six gauges on a single face, I want them to fit into the stock cluster, behind the stock lens. I want modern gauges, a modern look, but I want it to look like it's always been there. Since my colors are black/tan with blue accent, I want a black face with white digits/dials/pointer but a blue glow at night. Definitely going GPS, forever ending cables/senders. I want what no one else has. To answer your question on cost, my guess, based on what others have done, $1800 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy Posted October 11, 2017 Author Share Posted October 11, 2017 Someone has been busy haha. I am definitely considering a modern look. The Comanche's deserve an update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I submitted my request form to NVU. Here is a part of it, you can see where I'm going here, I'm specifically choosing from what is already designed to keep costs down. Although, if money were of no concern..........I have other ideas. 1988 Jeep Comanche (MJ) I want to replace the existing 6 gauge cluster with modern gauges. You have two clusters on page 12 of your flicker account. The arrangement I'm looking for is exactly like Perf2night. The style of gauge including backlighting and font is found on greg-night. The dash bezel window size is 13.25 wide and 4" high. I can send you a drawing, or a gutted cluster that your cluster will need to mount to. GPS speedo with 120 read max. I found your clusters on this page https://www.flickr.com/photos/90719091@N02/with/11007358325/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMMagnussen Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I still wish Dakota digital made clusters for us (Like they do for my Fullsizes) I did some poking with a tape measure and these look like they will fit. http://www.dakotadigital.com/index.cfm/page/ptype=product/product_id=219/category_id=69/mode=prod/prd219.htm Anything from the Ion series can be made to work for individual gauges. In the next few days I will get dimensions off the Wagoneer cluster. Size looks close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Quote Little disappointed, I was hoping you could create a single panel/overlay with the 6 gauges behind it. That way we are not confined to gauge bezel sizes. In light of that, please quote me on the three gauge using the quad. Thank you Quote Hi Scott Will do. Yes we can build a custom cluster from scratch, however, it is usually cost prohibitive as a full on cluster takes about 35-50 hours of work. Quote Give me a round number on full on. And the three with quad. Quote We will write up a quote on both, its hard to say without adding it up. We have built clusters from $3,000-$15,000, also have to do a quick packaging study to see if we can use standard circuits that we have on hand or if we have to create one-off circuit board(s) might be Tuesday before we can have all of the info on a full on cluster but not any longer BS. All I'm asking them to do is do what they have already done, just repackage it. Even of the gauge case/circuitry extended out past the cluster case, that would be ok as long as the face/overlay fit inside the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeep Driver Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 As a side note: I had a couple of back and forth emails before I got this out of him/them. I've experienced this before, someone telling me what I can and cannot afford, I hate that.

Jeep Driver Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Ultimately, this is probably what I will end up doing, these are Speedhut and they will fit in the MJ window. Ok, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeep Driver Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I ain't done with this yet. Here is another that would fit perfectly if not for the gaudy oval bezel. I don't want them to reinvent the wheel, just make a cluster to fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeep Driver Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I've got my quote from NVU, price was not that much more for a full-on one-off custom cluster with 6 gauges. They will get my deposit in the next couple of months. I inquired about production, will remain a one-off. Group buy is available if any of you are interested.

CMMagnussen Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Yeah I'm pulling up an old thread. Dakota digital cluster from the wagoneer didn't pan out but this looks promising. https://www.intellitronix.com/product-page/create-a-dash-universal-gauge-kit Installing a new dash in the YJ with Intellitronix gauges. If they hold up without issue the MJ will be next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy Posted December 7, 2018 Author Share Posted December 7, 2018 Anyone replace just one gauge? Or convert one? My speedo/odometer haven't worked and I'm not sure if my cable is broken or not. I was thinking of converting it to a gps speedo. Is that even possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
