    Note that if you replace your temperature gauge, you will need to move the A buss\wire .

    Original has a bus bar between the fuel and temp gauge.

    Replacement needs the bus swapped to a wire and moved to the other terminal:

    Or, just swap the gauge positions and reuse the bus bar.
    Not original, but less work?

    The fuel/ temp words are not on the gauges so thats not really an option. Also I drilled holes in the side of the gauge housing so i can adjust them without pulling everything apart
