Default Homemade Gauge Cluster **PICS**

Well, I have the dual gauge pillar for my crx, but with more than two gauges, vafc, and a shift light I didnt' want everything just thrown around, so I decided to make my own gauge cluster with a piece of carbon fiber that bambooseven gave me. I still have some detail work to do around the edges of the gauges, but here's how it's coming so far. (Country music WAS played while making this)

My camera blows ***.






Fear me, Hotrex!

How did you mount the VAFC?

The vafc is snuggly in there. I only trimmed the hole big enough to kinda wedge it in there right now, but I will be sealing it up with something. Liquid nails was used for the carbon plates. More of something will be added later.

I was gonna post pics of it in the car, but the only camera I have access to is the "webcam" at my moms house. Can't pull it out to the street with the wire attached.
(No, my mom doesn't have a live webcam)

What kind of camera is that? I'm curious so I know which one NOT to buy.

The AFC I bought from Trance had a piece of velcro on the back and my Civic had a piece on the roof liner so I put two and two together and BAM!


I don't know if I'm actually going to put it there or not. I just want it out of site and out of the way. If someone looks inside your car they are going to see all kinds of gauges and ----. I thought you were stealth yo?
