Did you make the gauge holder or is it available for purchase somewhere? Great conversion, very clean!

@benz18724 - I purchased the gauge holder with the gauges from KTA Services. I did however make a hood, out of a rubber sheet, over the back of it to protect fingers from touching those high voltage wires.

The car is still running great at 6,000 EV miles, and is driven every day.

How many MPG?

[ev99saturn]

@ingaman - It depends on the price of gas. The equivalent MPG goes up as the cost of gas goes up, my electricity costs are relatively stable. At $2.90 / gallon, it works out to about 127MPG (equivalent).
