,

built using cardboard template, and body filler, still needs a lot of fine tuning. during my trial fit, notice the front left corner was not sitting square as the 3 guage holder had straightened the curved, used a heat gun to try shape and over cooked it. need to start base again. but it shouldn't take to much longer

Ten points for effort, however I dont like the look of the big mound on your dash.

I prefer the look of the one below, which I brought on Ebay for like $50. They basically have the two gauges (no big mound behind them) and the gauges are pointed To you, not straight in front like the cheaper ones.

that looks better.... what would you put in the 3rd gauge pod anyway.

the ss gauges are they out of a vz? or can you buy them for the vy? and are they easy to install? mines a vy srz1 ss, with no dual climate control, just got the normal a/c dials, been told that makes a difference.
