The thought crossed my mind, but it was pretty involved, i really didnt know what i was getting myself into. The wiring was ok, I used my helms manual quite a bit. Thanks everyone!

I have been looking for something just like that for months now. If you ever decided to produce these, I would be one of the first people in line to buy one from you. That or you can just PM me a price to make one for me.

I spent about $400 on the gauges. If there wasn't so much cutting involved behind the dash I would be more willing to make some more plates. Its also a really tight fit with the gauges and the bezel, and every plate that i made fit differently, so it would be hard to make one that I know would fit everyones car. A 5 gauge setup on the other hand would be cake.
Edit: here is a picture of the cutting involved behind the dash.

It would be 2 big gauges and 3 small gauges. I used a 2 inch drum sander in the corners a lot, i actually had to reinforce the corners with fiberglass to get enough clearence. Thats my main concern with making more 6 gauge setups. A 5 gauge setup wouldnt have to deal with that problem.
