never running a tach like that again. came in handy considering the dx doesn't have one but it pissed the ---- out of me

Autometer made it. Want it?

Clips are missing, you can see the bolt on the right and maybe the screws on the left I used to hold it into place. Then I drill three holes in the dash to run the wiring.

Typical Autometer tach, never goes to zero when you shut the car off, see mine.

Re: New way to install gauges
 
that plywood bezel is O0 :6
another cool thing i have seen is using a peice of plexiglass and sticking it in where the original gauges are

keep posting up pics nogs, now that i have a cage i have to get rid of the a-piller pod.

SO, i am thinking this item

https://imagehost.vendio.com/bin/ima...ogeye92cvc.jpg

i have 5 gauges so i was thinking a vent delete? or maybe those ones that mount in the middle of the dash.

Discuss :y

Nice and clean! I need to get another ultra-lite for the middle, but the volt gauge was free, so ---- it.

Meh I have mixed feelings about those. I feel like it'd look goofy on the dash
