  • Florida 5.0

    Does anyone here have any experience with this company? I'm thinking about ordering one of their custom gauge clusters for my 98 Cobra that has a full 03/04 Cobra swap.

    I'm just a lil nervous about it because custom orders are nonrefundable and I don't want to get screwed on the deal. I know nothing about wiring or gauges, any of that.

    Here's what I'm looking at : http://www.florida50.com/1994-2004-i...t-clusters.htm

    I think they will work great in 98 Cobras, just not sure if they will be ok if you have the full 03/04 termy swap. You might wanna ask them that before ordering.

    Florida 5.0 has been around a while though.

      FWIW I've heard nothing but good things from people who went through them.

          You should just have the dash harness put in there and use the 03 gauges

            Overpriced crap IMO. If I had to do it again and I couldn't use OEM parts I'd get a Racepak IQ3.



            Clsoe to the same money and a much better product.

              Thanks bud. I just got off the phone with them, I feel much better about it after talking with them.

              Thanks for the input, but I really don't like the way that looks.

                Whatever you do make sure you get LED backlit gauges. That is my biggest bitch about what I have in my car right now. During the day it looks great. At night you can barely see them though.

                    Phantoms show up pretty good at night, probably because of the white face

                      I would leave the car stock gauges. When you go aftermarket gauges in the stock gauge location is gives the car a feel of Chopped up or Race Car

                        Where'd you get your set up from? That's the exact look I'm going for?
