    alright dudes, update time . . . . .

    I bought myself two Stewart Warner 50mm black face oil temp and oil pressure gauges now my dilema was that i wanted to mount them as high as possible without mounting them on top of the dash; First thought was to buy a 3 gauge single din plate that clips into the radio slot, but was too low for me . . . So I had another thought of mounting them into where the air vent is i bought some 50mm pvc pipe and a lil flat piece of plastic, pics . . . . .

    PVC pipe


    I shamfered the edge so the gauges would sit nicely in tem


    Roughtly traced out the shape need for the delete


    trimmed and sat in place


    Welded blank in place


    Sanded


    the rear

    Cut the holes required and placed in the gauge mounts (angled)



    I had to trim down the gauge brackets and bend them out to secure ontot the pvc pipe


    mounted


    Dummy fit to get the angles right



    welded, sanded and sprayed

    Looks like some great DIY there Alex. Good stuff.


    What is happening with the panel directly to the right of the lightswitch, has it got tape on it or something?
