Default Remounted My Gauges

at first i just had it flush mounted but when you order from glowshift they give you a sun visor type of thing to put on your gauge when you install them, so what i did was turn them over and it was the perfect angle to make the gauge point directly at the drivers seat. the inner bezel i cut from wood and painted which you don't hardly see and i mounted the gauge and the angle ring to that. i couldn't be happier with the outcome. the gauge on the left is a digital tach and the right one is a volt meter. to me the pictures do not do them justice from what it actually looks like.




this one is a video:

They look really good and different, plus they are angled toward the driver, nice!.

That looks good. I did the same thing with Autometer's angle rings just on the center console instead of the dash. I live in Texas and the 5 vents in the dash still aren't enough to match this heat!



Still need to figure out something to do with that TCS switch
