I am removing the console from my 1974. The car currently has a multi-gauge with just the fuel gauge (because the temp gauge was in the console). I think this is the correct replacement multi-gauge which incorporates the temp gauge:

Should there be existing wiring behind the dash for the temp gauge? Or do I have to run a wire myself?

What is the orange/yellow indicator for? I think the bulb holder behind it is just for gauge illumination.

thanks!

Nope, the yellow one was never used. On the Six gauges it was evidently some kind of warning for the Sporto transmission (very very rare option), but never used at all on the four-cylinder cars.

The Cat and EGR lights were on the gauge plate next to the tach, not inside any of the gauges.
