Gauge options?
I really want to customize my dash where my stereo is and move the stereo down and take out the ashtray and then put the three gauge set up above the stereo. does anybody have pictures of this or any suggestions

Re: Gauge options?
Sounds like you need to do some custom sheet metal fab work to get the look you're after. The only other option I've seen is a repopped dash pad that has integrated gauge pods molded into it, that are angled towards the driver. Don't ask me where I saw this or who sells it 'cause my memory is far too clogged with malted hops and bong resins (remnants of my youth- of course). Nonetheless the dash pad idea fails to address your desire to wipe out the radio hole and ashtray.
If you can draw/sketch what you want- chances are it can be fabbed either by you or somebody else.
