Post Pics of Custom Gauge setup!!!

Guest · Dec 4, 2003

I am thinking of doing putting 5 or 6 60mm Greddy gauges on the A/C control panel (the one with the clock).

I was wondering if there are anyone out there with a creative way of putting multiple gauges on the panel. Currently I am thinking of relocation (extending the harness) the a/c control elsewhere and use the whole space above the stereo deck.

I don't want to put it on the a-pillar as it will attract too much "unwanted" attention from the cops

Thanks,
Kaz

95jza80tt, Who sells thoughs gauge holder?

Greg Bielawski · Dec 5, 2003

I think I've seen it for sale on Suprastore, but it costs like $350

BTW, I'm thinking of doing a custom fibreglass/vinyl covering gauge setup where all my gauges will replace the passenger airbag. I think that's the nicest setup and keeps the car looking stock. IMO, gauge pods are terrible, making it harder to see other cars in certain situations and just seems kinda....rice. I had one and got rid of it.

I put one of my gauges in the a/c vent it was easy as hell it fit like it was made to go there. I think it looks pretty cool.

what do you do with the duct going to the vent? Do you plug with a rag? How did you route the wire for the gauge? Did you cut a hole in the duct?

Thanks,

XCELR8- do you kno who owns that car? I think its in one of the redline videos. I like that angled RSM, AVC-R, S-AFC glovebox holder, also do you know what those 3 lights are that are at the stock clock location? Thanks.

I own it.

It was down at UPFD for about a year and I think it did get a brief shot in a redline video. The 3 lights are actually 5 lights (3 are off the edge of the pic). Above the lights is the LCD readout for a Motec wideband analyzer. The five lights are for the K40 radar/laser detector (2 LEDs for front/rear laser, 2 LEDs for front/rear radar, center LED for power on that indicates highway/city mode).

XCELR8 .... that dash is clean .. whatd u do with it? paint ? what kind? shop work or ur own?

I'm goin' out on a limb here and say this is one of the nicest aftermarket gauge installs on any MKIV ever. It is my buddy's 97 6sp RSP here in San Antonio. Gauges hangin off the side of the dash or A pillar is straight up RICE.

Please refrain from all RICER type activities.

Thank you.

WOW....that IS the nicest setup I've ever seen. If I didn't know better, I'd swear they were all stock.

Guest · Dec 8, 2003

Thomas,

I think we are all wondering who did that work? That is simply the best gauge mounting I think we've all seen. I would've gone with Defi Gauges but to each his own. How much would that cost also?
