You pull this off Mark and you will be my HERO!!!  I've really wanted to
replace that analog clock for a while now. I have a digital boost gague in
the slot where the Auto Trannie readout would be, and have considered
replacing the three gagues from and early S4, but hey I'd do this in stead
and replace my Boost with an Air Fuel!!!

Also, as a side note.  Anyone know if the person who had a line on the 3Bar
MAF sensors and ECU transducer is still out there? My MAF is going bad, and
not responding to cleaning any more, and if I gots'ta spend some $ if
figured I'd upgrade.

Thanks!

BTW, if anyone needs a power window switch with working light, send me a
line.  I 'Picked up' a few at the junkyard off a 200 TQ this weekend, and
would love to share :)
