Here is the factroy TURBO guage, this was found only
on the 2.3 litre turbo models. I have seen Turbo models without the guage
(AMP guage in place of it), so apparently this is an optional guage. Notice
that the Tachometer indicates upto 8,000 RPM. The V-8 Anniversary cars
were equipped with the 7,000 RPM tachometer on both the AOD (CFI-TBI)
and 5-speed (Carbeurated) moiels.

Here is the factory AM-FM-Auto Reverse radio with the Factory correct knobs.
The faceplate is a seperate commonly found piece, I painted the grey parts
to better match the other panels on the dashboard, although this is not
the orignal finish, it looks much nicer. The original finish is just the
usual Black.

Here is the mostly restored Fog Lamp switch. The usual problem here is pits/scratches
in the metal faceplate and also sometimes the switch "wears out".
I replaced mine for the unit pictured here, all that needs to be done here
is a little touch up on the indicator light housing. A black permanent
Magic Marker does this job quite well (I used a "Sharpie". "El-Marko"
markers arent quite black and leave a bluish hint on the surface)

Here is the original Climate Controls. As you can see in the photo, I needed
to replace it, It was cracking and getting very brittle. What you cant
see is the broken off mounting tabs. The "fan" switch is also
just "Hanging loose" in its socket. You have to be carfull when
getting a replacement, There are several types for the 1979 thru 1986 Mustangs,
some have more switchs / settings than others. (depending on what options
your car has). and they also "light up" in two different colors!
Pre 1984 models were illuminated with the older "Green" color,
1984 thru 1986 were Orange.
