If you’re restoring a 1968-1969 Chevrolet Camaro or a 1968-1974 Chevrolet Nova, you know how important the factory console gauges are to the finished look of your interior. While the original ammeter served its purpose decades ago, many enthusiasts today prefer the reliability and functionality of a volt gauge—especially on modified vehicles and LS engine conversions.

That’s why we’re excited to introduce our new factory-style console volt gauges, available as Part #413-003 and Part #X413-003.

Designed to Look Original

Unlike generic aftermarket gauges that stand out like an afterthought, these new volt gauges are engineered to match the original GM console gauge appearance. They feature:

• Correct silver or black gauge face
• Authentic light green lettering and indicator markings
• Factory-style appearance that blends seamlessly with your original console gauges
• Direct mounting in the factory console gauge assembly

The result is a clean, stock-looking installation that complements both original restorations and high-end restomods.

Why Upgrade to a Volt Gauge?

Many classic GM muscle cars originally used an ammeter to monitor the charging system. While period-correct, a volt gauge provides a more practical way to monitor your vehicle’s electrical system.

A voltmeter allows you to quickly determine:

• Battery condition
• Charging system performance
• Alternator output
• Electrical system health before problems leave you stranded

For owners who have upgraded to modern charging systems or LS engines, a volt gauge is often the preferred solution.

Perfect for LS Swaps

One of the biggest advantages of these new gauges is compatibility with many LS conversion wiring harnesses.

Many aftermarket LS swap harnesses are designed to work with a voltmeter instead of the original ammeter. These gauges provide the factory appearance enthusiasts want while delivering the electrical monitoring modern drivetrains expect.

If you’re building an LS-powered Camaro or Nova but don’t want to sacrifice the stock interior appearance, these gauges are an excellent solution.

Easy Installation

The new volt gauges are designed to mount using your original console electrical hardware and are compatible with reproduction wiring connector kits.

Installation requires drilling two small holes in the console gauge mounting plate, and a drilling template is included to simplify the process.

Vehicle Applications

These new volt gauges fit:

• 1968 Camaro
• 1969 Camaro
• 1968 Nova
• 1969 Nova
• 1970 Nova
• 1971 Nova
• 1972 Nova
• 1973 Nova
• 1974 Nova

Whether you’re completing a concours-quality restoration or building a modern street machine with vintage styling, these gauges provide the perfect balance of originality and functionality.

Upgrade Your Console the Right Way

If you’ve been searching for a 1968 Camaro volt gauge, 1969 Camaro console volt gauge, 1968-74 Nova console volt gauge, or an LS swap console gauge solution, Parts 413-003 and X413-003 deliver the factory appearance you expect with the performance today’s enthusiasts demand.

Give your console the look Chevrolet should have offered from the factory while gaining the confidence of accurately monitoring your charging system every time you hit the road.

Finally! A Camaro Volt Gauge!

The original Camaro console gauge that kept an eye on the battery was the age-old amp gauge. The ammeter is its fancy name. It kept an eye on the battery by measuring the amp reading through the circuit which ran parallel to the alternator circuit. Unfortunately, amps don’t really give you a true picture of what is going on with the battery or the alternator. But, a Camaro Volt Gauge would really do the trick!

Welcome To The Future!

The Camaro enthusiasts over at Classic Headquarters have come up with a Camaro volt gauge that fits right into the console gauge housing with little fuss. Now, why is this a big deal? First of all, the volt gauge is an Officially Licensed GM Restoration Part.  Secondly, not only does this gauge keep an eye on the battery the right way; It is usually a no brainer for the LS swap crowd since LS engine wiring has a take off for a volt reading.

Easy and Cool.

If you already have a Camaro with the console gauges, you can easily install the Camaro volt gauge by drilling a couple of extra holes in the gauge plate. Then, it becomes super-easy to pick up the volt signal from either the alternator or the existing LS swap harness. Finally, you will have a good idea of what the alternator and battery are doing without having to get out of the car and get under the hood.

You Gotta Have One!
