Did they put guages in 1992 xjs? Mine has the lights but I want to find some guages at the junk yard if they will plug and play???

Thanks
 
Willem's right. Change the oil pressure and temperature senders (simple on/off devices for idiot lights) to sensors for the gauge package. All of the other instruments will work.

[Edit] That is, as long as you get the right gauge package. IIRC, you'll need a 91-95 gauge package.
 
I just did this to my 91 xj yesterday. I found a set of gauges on ebay for $20. Then went down to the local parts store and got the new oil pressure sending unit and coolant temp. sending unit. Total for the whole job was $60. Better then you'll find at the scrapyard. The swap took about 20 min.

Here is the link for a great write up on changing them out.
