Preliminary Steps

1. Read instructions thoroughly for the gauge(s) you purchased.

The installation of each gauge requires the expertise of a

trained mechanic. Please consult a qualified technician if

you have not had training on instrument installation.

2. Consult your vehicle’s repair manual to locate the appropriate

port in the firewall for the gauge you are installing. Also

locate the appropriate 12V ignition switch wiring or fuse box.

3. Determine the best route for tubing to follow. Choose a path

free of hazards of moving parts or hot engine components.

4. Determine correct mounting location illustrated above. Note:

It is important that each gauge be placed as indicated except

for the optional Fuel Level gauge (explained later), each

gauge is designed with its own hardware to fit the designated

position.

5. All efforts have been made to determine the correct gauge

location for Shelby Cobras. Although many cars were built

differently (special orders), the gauge locations indicated

above are logical and vintage original photos of CSX 3022

indicate this layout. We suggest you follow this pattern. If you

chose to install your gauges in different locations Auto Meter

Products will not be responsible for any unfortunate results that

may occur. In order to retain our suggested original integrity,

follow the instructions correctly for the gauge(s) you purchased.
6. Assemble tools and parts required for installation.
WARNING – If you have purchased more than one gauge DO

NOT mix assembly parts between gauges.
7. Disconnect negative (-) battery cable from the battery during

gauge installation.

8. See each gauge installation instructions on the following

pages.

OIL TEMPERATURE

The oil temperature gauge is installed to the left of the steering

column.
1. Use only the installation components provided with the

gauge.

2. Do not cut hole in firewall. Use hole already provided.
3. Refer to the Mechanical gauge installation (Temperature

Gauges) for installing the oil temperature gauge.

4. If removal of the temperature sensor and adapter fitting

is necessary, do not allow the adapter fitting to rotate when

removing the sensor. Failure to follow this procedure may

break capillary tubing internally thus voiding warranty.

WATER TEMPERATURE

The water temperature gauge is installed above and left of the

speedometer (See Drawing).
1. Use only the installation components provided with the

gauge.

2. Do not cut hole in firewall. Use hole already provided.
3. Refer to the Mechanical gauge installation (Temperature

Gauges) for installing the water temperature gauge.

4. If removal of the temperature sensor and adapter fitting

is necessary, do not allow the adapter fitting to rotate when

removing the sensor. Failure to follow this procedure may

break capillary tubing internally thus voiding warranty.
