Hey Nat,
Where did you get the plastic gauge cluster for the ash tray?

thanks!

Taken minutes before FYI

How was it mounting the gauges? Did you have enough room on the back side for all the wiring and such? I installed mine in the cubby just above the ashtray, and even then it was a tight fit. I'd be interested to see how it works out in a much smaller space.

Not plastic... Its powder coated aluminum.

Its was a tight fit! But if you minimize the wiring for example you bring just one power source and just make little jumpers for the other guages than all you have is the signal wire! But I did cut a bit of carpet because of the actual bracket for guages it was pushing up about 1/6" but in the end it worked out.
