When you get a chance could you post a pic?

bigo181979 · 12-15-2007, 12:59 PM

Here is a pick he sent me of one with gauges I am still ateing on my spedo and tack and boost gauge to come in but I will try to take some pics for you tonight of what I have.

b&a72 · 12-15-2007, 06:10 PM

Sweet that would be great. From that picture it looks like they are mounted from the inside.

bigo181979 · 12-16-2007, 04:04 AM

Yep, you set the gauge in from the front andthey sit almost flush with the panel. It looks really good!

smoky02 · 12-16-2007, 05:48 AM

Would you be able to do a set in the brushed appearance?

Ryan Hubbard · 12-30-2007, 11:33 AM

Here is a picture of my dash finished.

Will have to get one of these sets when the time comes. Great work.

72BLUZ · 01-01-2008, 07:14 PM

what would it cost if you installed the gauges and polished the edge, and powder coated the center black to give it the original look.

renegade8720 · 01-04-2008, 01:27 PM

I just ordered my new dash panel from Ryan. Super guy to deal with! Can't wait to get it. I will be ordering the glove box soon.

Got my dash panel from Ryan and I am totally impressed. This is the best panel on the market.

TTT so I can find this sucker again . . ....

shifty · 04-08-2008, 06:57 AM

Question, after seeing this linked from another thread - I didn't see anyone ask this previously, but ... does the Autometer gauge panel (2 x 5" and 5 x 2-1/8" holes) support mounting the gauges BEHIND the bezel? I ultimately prefer this look, I really appreciate the work you've put into this (I have a similar mockup on my spare glovebox door), and would love to see the Autometer setup w/gauges installed behind.

Blue85 · 04-08-2008, 07:34 AM

Beautiful product, but it would look sweet with rear mounted gauges.

TonyJohnson · 04-08-2008, 09:57 PM

You need to edit the price on the first post to reflect the correct price.

The indicator lights are from painless wiring and the part number from painless is 80205 for the 5/16" Dash Indicator light. The dash is made from 6061 T6 aluminum plate and are built to the original dimensions. These will bolt right in. They come unfinished. The price for the dash is $150.00. Price includes ground shipping. If I get a group buy I can go a little lower on price. These units are made on my CNC mill and I did this for my personal truck and thought I would share it with others. Any questions please post here or email me at ryan.hubbard@aspencontrols.com

**passthebuck** · 08-12-2008, 05:43 PM

Here's where I'm at with mine right now. I've got more to do though...

Ryan Hubbard · 08-12-2008, 05:58 PM

Nice Job on the dash panel. If you run into any issues, please don't hesitate to contact me.

As far as a website goes, I am working with another company that makes gauges and we will be putting the dash boards on his website. We are also going to have a set of custom gauges made just for the dash. The website is www.thomaskirkham.com . I have not been able to put up a website of my own because I have doubled the size of my engineering company and hired new employees and am moving into a new building in September. So between training new employees, designing a new building and buying new equipment I have not had any spare time to do a website. I hope to have the dash panels on the website in a couple weeks.

*Shane* · 08-12-2008, 06:52 PM

did you ever do any design work to allow for the gages to be mounted BEHIND the dash panel?
