Gauges

Currently I am using an app for my phone for the speedometer and to keep up with the miles. It works great but it's annoying when I get a call or when I use the GPS on my phone. I want to go with an electric speedometer and a attach a GPS module. And go with a matching electric tach or a mechanical and use a module to read the signal from the Coil on Plug. Can I use the gauges from a C10 1973 and up?

What are ya'll using?

Re: Gauges

I used a Dakota digital ECD-100 with stock gauges. Works great if you want to keep an original look. A little expensive

I used the Speedhut GPS speedometer in my '67 when I put the S-10 5 speed trans in it.

Works great. They also have all of the other gauges to match.
