I'll be whipping the panel off today, will take pics and measurements
and send to you.

temp gauge problem is a bit puzzling, we get voltage (around 10,
supplied from dash volt reg) at end of wire at temp sender but no
gauge action even with swapping in known good gauge. Mark Drillock
sent me a good over view and test procedure and also agrees agrees
that it is possible to have voltage at end of wire but no function
due to resistance along path. Next step is test at fuse panel to
confirm panel to gauge wiring ok, then tracking down bad connection.

will report back on that too.

cheers

measurements in that lower opening?  Looks like a 6x9 or similar may
fit in there.
Good luck with the diagnosis on your problem.
