It appears that the upgrade forces a login and many, many of you have forgotten your passwords and didn't set up any reminders. Contact me directly through helpmelogin@dodgecharger.com and I'll help sort it out.

Temp. gauge upgrade

Just something I found out last night when installing my Performance graphics gauge faces...
I used to wonder why my car ran so cool even in hot weather, usually the gauge would show around 150-170 degrees never more than that.
Apparently back in 68 they installed the wrong temp gauge face plates, then there was a recall and the dealer would install the upgrade free. I would guess not many owners took their cars in for that though.
The kit from Performance car graphics gives you both the original and the upgrade that shifts the numbers to the left.

Wow, I have never heard of that before.  So what temp is your car going to be at now with the proper ones on there?
