That's BS autometer doesn't make a gauge cluster bezel for 5g civics. I am going to have to do some custom ---- if I want to hide my gauges now.

EDIT: Oh yeah I would proly get Boost and EGT. Maybe oil pressure and water temp, but the stock oil light and water temp gauge are good for now. Wideband o2 would be nice for tuning, but they are spendy and can't tune my hondata myself yet.

one of the big problems is that if you hide gauges from others sometimes you can't see them. I've seen a picture of someone who removed the sun visor and put gauges up there. Onyx says it's out of the line of sight, but what gauge isn't?

links to how you made it? I'm all into this making your own stuff.

Here's schematics for A/F gauge I used to make.. rather easy and inexpensive. I'll post pics soon of what I've done.. as still turbo isn't mounted yet - but it will be within couple of weeks.

As for some ppl saying A/F gauge without wideband is worthless... depends - yes, you cannot read accurately A/F ratio, but at least you get an idea what's happening - still better than not having anything at all.
