Going to upholster the VA one and go old school chrome triple bezel for water, trans temp and oil pressure. Reviewed wiring install instructions and Alan Horvaths site.

Made up templates of the cab inside back to figure out what I want. Here is a sketch of what I'm aiming for. Truck will be used so need place for 6x9 speakers on the sides, 12" woofer to give my wife some ammo to remind me I'm half-deaf, and lots of misc. storage compartments. Also going with folding rod, gun, plan, etc. racks.
Nice sketch but forget the rod holders and make it for a rifle and shotgun, seeing how our world is so messed up!!!!!!!

I was trying to be PC and not perpetuate the Redneck Idaho image! There will be room for the 12 ga, 3.06 and Glock backup.
