Also add to steering column, a panel with directional ligth, hazzard, automatic and manual electric radiator fan.... the truck seems to be upgraded to run on Paris Dakar travel!

Thanks for the explanation. I half thought it was part of a deep water wading kit. But then again if the driver was wading up to his chest I bet the last thing he'd be worrying about is the oil pressure!! I also wondered that, if it was a duplicate dash, I can see how you could wire the duplicate gauges but I have no idea how you'd get a second speedometer in parallel with the first. At least I can stop thinking about it now.

All these instruments work so well, that I still haven't made the decision to remove them to leave the truck as factory as possible...
