Chris,
I believe this to be an original dash gauge and not a supplementary
Smiths gauge. The supplementary gauges, I believe would be designated TG.
The original AH100 fuel gauge was X 49422/219 and was later superceded by
a FG number. The original 100s oil temp gauge is X 20933/139, later
replaced by TG 1502/17. This is why I think the gauge I have was an
original installation.
Cheers,
Doug
