Selected User Reviews For AUTO METER (5381 Direct Fit Gauge Panel
There's nothing wrong with it, it's just bad quality.
What a BEAUTY this is! This is an absolute must-have for anyone planning on installing new gauges on their TJ. The two complaints are that A) it would be nice to have a smaller opening for the speedometer and tachometer. According to me, I believe this could improve the look of the dash as currently the gauges are too large and out of proportion. A) There should be provisions for wiring in two turn signal indicators, and one for a bright signal indicator. Three holes were drilled (off center and not lined up because I'm a slug) for sixmm LED lights and holders that I bought at Radio Shack, then I glued them in place. If you still have the factory wiring harness that your original gauges were connected to, it is very simple to wire these in.
There is no point to giving it any more than three stars except that it will technically work. 100 dollars is not a lot of money for this flimsy, cheaply made piece of plastic. It didn't work out because I did not have the patience or the know-how to come up with a different solution.
I can't wait to see how this turns out! I will use this in a Jeep TJ Wrangler HEMI conversion project! The quality is excellent, and it will be a great fit! Also, for the person who gave it "two" stars, did you actually think that you were getting the dash AND all of the Auto Meter gauges for $85? Are you serious? As a result, I highly recommend this article to anyone who's looking for aftermarket gauges for the TJ Wrangler.
You won't see any gauges! This is a simple piece of plastic with an inside filled in to hold alternative gauges you purchase separately. It is not anything more than a decorative piece of plastic without any electronics or functionality. Despite what the picture shows, it's not what it seems.
