Hey, have a central speedo with basically no dash, have a backing board which covers up windscreen heater pipes etc. i want to put in some oil and water gauges but dont know where to put them. i dont want to mount them like some central speedo minis where they are in a case surrounding the speedo( one each side) as i like the look of having just the big speedo in the middle. i also dont really want to buy a new dash board.

i know im being picky but wondered if anyone has mounted them somewhere different, but still in a practical space. any pics or advice would be great

cheers

hmmmm. not sure might go with the one shaz showed me, got a bit of mdf lying around i could use :withstupid:

Like the sound of the pannel behind the steering wheel though, or maybe hanging underneath by heater switches, although might be a bit tight for my legs.

Does anyone have any pics of the mounting behind steering wheel?

thanks for ur help, greatly appreciated
