  • 2 questins econometer and dash space.....

    okay i what is that spot on top of the dash for... it has a removable spot but i'm wondering what goes there..... it's really bothering me... i have seen lx's and they still don't have anything there.... also can i put in an econometer.. not sure if thats a word but i feel like thats what it should be called... what i mean is on of those digital meters that some cars have that tell what mpg your getting how many miles you traveled and the time or some such... my girlfriends old la baron had one and i liked it... so i was wondering if there have been any cases of someone putting them in festeys...

    Overseas the cars had clocks there, in the US we never had clocks. There is some for sale every so often, but be prepared to pay for one. They seem to go for stupid money!

      The econometer you speak of is basically a glorified manifold vacuum gage. They can be had at your friendly neighborhood parts store, and only require a source of manifold vacuum to work. Basically, the higher your vacuum, the better mileage you should be getting.

          What would it cost to ship one across the pond. At that price I'd consider whipping mine out!

                      If you get the chance to buy one do it. If you change your mind you can resell it here or on ebay.
