As you may know from !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! that I have been trying to fix electrical gremlins on my 928.

Well I pulled the cluster again and reinstalled it a second time thinking maybe I fucked something up. Nope, It is gone! So I have been thinking about taking a dremel and putting aftermarket gauges in and trying to wire up the idiot lights directly so it all works, but I have “better gauges” but then I look at these messes

And I lose any and all confidence that I have the skill and the patience to not fuck it all up. Not to mention I don’t have a garage to work on my car and I do 90% of my work on it on my lunch breaks and Saturdays after work. I just never have understood wiring diagrams and I think just hard wiring the cluster instead of that stupid foil would be great, but I still feel I don’t have the skills to do it correctly and to be honest the old cluster people are selling cost way too much to justify replacing it. Any suggestions on what to do or the best way to add aftermarket gauges?

This is what I would like
