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.

HOLE
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.
