Got my setup the other day and I must say, the fit and finish is excellent.
Thanks again.

Awesome, I'm glad you approve of it. And if you even need it refinished for some reason in the future, just send it back and I'll do it for free.

How much is the dual gauge with center vent? I think I seen this on eBay but I see you're providing the bracket for the gauge and a way to keep it from moving behind the vent.

I am looking for a solution to mount 4 Defi' Bf's across my dash, along with my Aem Uego.
What can you do?
I would like to leave it in such a way that I can expand, as I do plan on getting a few more Defi's

Yep, just send over the drawing. I'm pretty sure I know what you want, but I would like to see your drawing before I quote you a price.

Haha sorry boss! s13 hatch, It is my track car, So I do not need anything crazy trick of fancy, just something that works, and is functional, easy to see..

It will need to hold my 4 defi Bf's and my Aem uego wideband.

Feel free to shoot me a pm or reply here...

Would rather get things figured out while the dash is out of the car haha!

broadfield how much would it cost to have you make one with 3 angles gauges (if possible) in the DIN spot, it can be in the upper or lower doesn't matter

So are you wanting a panel in place of the radio? Or are you wanting a cluster?

You definitely can't do the angled rings in the 178mm of width you have in the radio opening. With the rings all in a line touching each other they are 191mm wide. So the only way it could be done is to mold the rings in place to the surrounding plastic. It would be baller, but maybe out of your price range... $300.

If you don't want them angled then the gauges could most likely fit width wise depending on the gauge. Most 52mm gauges have a external diameter of 58-59mm. So at 59mm that would be 3x59=177mm. So as you can see they would BARELY fit. I have seen some 52mm gauges with extra large bezels that would not fit in there. You then may have a height issue. The radio opening has 105mm of height. So if you put that same 59mm gauge in there then you would only have 46mm of height left for your radio to squeeze in there.

So needless to say I don't offer a plate to put gauges there. There are too many variables with gauge design and where exactly you have your radio mounted. You would most likely need to mount your radio as low as it would go just to squeeze the gauge in there... and it still might not fit depending on the gauge If the radio had a flip down face then forget about it. Now it could possibly be different if I had your car at my shop. Because then I would be in control of how/where the radio is mounted etc. But it's impossible for me to offer a generic plate that fits there for a random gauge.

Let me know if you want something molded there though.

Could you make a single 60mm Gauge holder for the steering column of a 240sx? OR the A-pillar? But I'm from Australia so would need to be for the right hand side A-pillar (passenger to you guys in USA). Love your build too. Quite the genius in terms of coming up with customizable stuff!!

$300 is a good price for the whole center piece custom piece but im still undecided on that route... i was planning on removing the radio on that car and either installing it in another place or doing something crazy and finding a way to have my speakers run with just an mp3 player since i mostly just used the AUX IN on the radios i install anyway =/ (still trying to find what i can do about this idea...)

btw im using xline gauges and if i change them im thinking of going DEFI route...

im going to play around in my head with ideas and get back to you with what i want to do in the end... and add a custom boost controller to the upper steering wheel cover, im tired of having that thing on with just double sided tape...

I wouldn't for the steering column... there's just no way to make a 60mm gauge look good there. It would look like a huge goiter or something. I typically don't do the A-pillar either for the same reason.

For your MP3 player you can simply use an aux cable and run it directly into an amplifier.

Damn, those things are mega deep. The U-shaped brackets I have most likely won't even work on those. You will need to come up with your on way to mount them.

[shalezzz]

yea i might have to suck it up and buy the stri gauges i believe theyre much thinner and have better reviews, from what ive read theyre the next best thing after defi

so how much for the 3 gauge angled 52mm, drilled for mounting and ill be putting the stri's in it.

[d_nice]

nice product.....

Sorry, I don't really have any installed pics since they simply get shipped out to my customers. You can surf the interior thread and maybe find some of my work. Here is the only one I know of for sure that was posted recently by one of my customers:
