haha ya im definately going with autometer, i just love the look of the cobalt over the rest, and they arent too much more then the other series, so ill just save up a bit longer, do you know any good sites that make custom gauges housings for like indash placements?

For what car?I know autometer makes one for the 92-95 civic that goes on the a/c vents over the stereo.I think Gude makes some dash pods too.

I got a JDM center console for my car and I just put a piece of carbon fiber as a block off plate that I will be mounting my gages on.They will be kind of hard to see since they will sit right under the stereo and not in view while driving but the carbon fiber looks PIMP!

right now im leaning towards a 5th gen accord, got big plans for it though, and i found a thing for in-dash on another site, but the holes in it are for 45mm gauges and autometers smallest gause is like 52 mm so that isnt gonna work

the holes are too close to each other, if you increased each one to 52mm youd just have on big oval

---- it ill just make my own
