All the more reason to swap in an escalade platinum cluster

Would it be cheaper to install an a-pillar gauge? And if someone could post a link for one that would be great.

I opted for the pillar pod - used a Carbon Fiber gauge - matches the interior color nicely
Electric gauge - temp sender screws right in the transmission - right above the shifter
Easy install.
50.00 vs 230.0 plus
and dont have to have the mileage transfered.

Where did you get your gage from? I have a 03 too I'm going to go your route.

I do Summit or Jegs
Electric Carbon Fiber
Check my Cardomain page - page 3 is a pic of my temp gauge prior to a trans temp gauge
I shipped my cluster to Thunder - but he couldnt do it - 03 and up are different
I went the easy way.
