that looks pretty smart, what size are the holders? 52mm? i could maybe replace the headunit with my single din and squeeze 3 gauges above or below that.

Just clicked it, your car is sick!!

On topic, I'm gunna be moving my head unit (single din) down to the little tray at the bottom of the centre console, leaving space for gauges where the head unit was originally

:)
 
I've got 2 52mm gauges to fit

SPA dual digital oil temp/pressure
VDO analogue water temp

Just picked up an OEM honda radio block, going to chop holes in that to mount the gauges and ditch the stereo :nerv:
 
I use the one pictured above and i love it, looks very clean.

Most of 'em are 52mm, you can find lots of those on Ebay.
 
see i like that steven, reckon theres enough room in that for 3 gauges? you make that yourself? what did you use?
 
A din cover plate should do the trick combined with a drill at not too high a speed ;) If you don't care about driving without a radio, then that might be the option for you. There are also DIN plates ready to mount 3 gauges that are angled slightly towards the driver.

^ i wasnt so keen on that after seeing one in somebodys car in earlier post
 
Mine is an OEM honda radio block plate. drilled some holes as a start then dremeled out the rest to 52mm so the gauges would fit

Not all hooked up yet, will have the engine out soon so be a better oportunity to fit the sandwich plate and chop the top rad hose to fit the adapter
