^^ They are 52mm Autometer nexus gauges. I never liked 60mm gauges, so big....anyway its custom I took some PVC piping, fiberglass, my dremel, a case of heineken and had some fun lol. I'd like to make a bunch of them but just never have anytime. I think I've put gauges everywhere in the car that I can think of...

Oh and I made these like 2 years or so ago looking to sell to somebody the original piece of this one for cheap + stock part. Cheap because it needs a new coat of paint, and its the original one that I made my mold with so its kinda sloppy on the underside, can't see that side anyways. Heres a pic.

I assume this required removing your oem gauge shroud/cover and molding it?

Nice. . .thanks! I'm going to do something very similar with a buttload of nexus gauges. I just wanted to see what size they were for comparison's sake. Thanks again!

Does the Fcon navigator have any kind of warning device to alert you just in case you don't happen to be looking at the screen?

Quote: I had this one made up. It's not what you are after if you want them hidden, but I have Autometer Nexus gauges and they turn red if any gauge goes into the danger zone. It will immediately catch my attention even if I'm not closely monitoring them. (A/F Left, A/F right, Boost/Vac, Oil pressure, Trans Temp)
Sorry about the glare - I didn't notice.
Where did you get that made and how much did it run? It looks good!

You really need to make a few of these. I am sure these would sell like crazy. Get with a company and sell them your part to make copies. Ill buy one as soon as you do.

Quote: Funny you mention it John. We just finished up a car for a customer and this is where we put his gauges. The gaugea are there when the lid is up and when you want them consealed or out of the way just close it.





In the pics it looks like you can't see/read them too well, but they worked out great and very easy to read.

if you could pm me the dimensions for that piece in the cubby, i would really appreciate it. i would pay for someone to make me one too, except with only one gauge in the middle. i would then velcro two square digital gauges on either side of the middle one. hopefully you see this cause i cant send you a pm for some reason

I am planing on using the plx data logger in the ashtray spot. I am going to have it still rotate so i can keep it closed and see nothing. I am going for complete stealth with my turbo kit.
