Glovebox gauge cluster

I remember a while back some people were asking about how to mount this.

There will be 6 holes left in the dash after cutting out the switch humps, I placed my bolts there. Hold the glove box up to the dash and scribe the spots on the back. They're on the angle portion so the scribe won't be really accurate. I drilled the four middle holes and put 10-32 screws through to help line up, then welded studs in the correct spot. Placed back on the dash and marked for the two outside ones. Ran a tap over them and she'll bolt on from the backside with lock washers and nuts.

Red arrows show the stud locations. The glovebox is plently stiff before you cut it but you'll need to add supports when its cut. I welded in supports under every leg of the gauge hold downs as well as at the green arrows and along the green line. Haven't finished wiring the gauges yet
