The "ultimate" custom gauge install thread
 
Post pics of the custom installs for additional gauges that you and your sneaky big brains have concocted.

Carry on.

I like the tac, except I prefer the traditional black to the white faces.

cant get any closeup pics of it but in excellence a while ago there was an adriatic blue 914 with a 993 engine swap and was done by patrick motorsports. there is a sheet metal shifter tunnel with gauges mounted in it, i though it looked pretty neat and clean. there are some shots of it in the gallery of the patrick motorsports site.

More TRE work. Since I no longer need the slot to hold CD's, I'm thinking of adding two more gauges, some day. Maybe CHT and wideband A/F.

Normally, the Hotlap display isn't there, and the ash tray is in place, covering the fire pull.

here a cht guage where the clock was......i need to find a solid piece of glass (from an oil press guage) so i can get rid of the annoying hole in the center :D
surrounding the guage are super bright leds, yellow for charge and red for oil pressure. they are all slaved off the stock lamps in the other guage.....but i can see these reguardless of where the sun is :)

i know this is the wrong make and model of car, but I always thought it would be fun to try to put a heads up display in a car like the corvettes offered.

I'd pay up for a nicely made and finished two or three-gauge A-pillar pod. I would like to add some gauges but I use my clock, the center console is teeny, and under the knee bar isn't the most visible location - plus I need the room for, like, my knees.

More of NH Speedo's work...easy to read with a 350cm wheel and no gimmics.

Picture posting isn't working at the moment, but I have VDO head temp sensor and volt gauges mounted under the ashtray. My tach is the same as Danes, but without the red/green. I have a simple piece of orange tape for redline.

Anyone know of a VDO head temp that would fit the clock hole?

ScottKelly911 08-27-2004 10:12 PM

how much does something like that cost?
