I'm guessing you wanted this in the Appearance & Detailing section (since you didn't say which one you wanted).

I think I did see that gauge cluster you mentioned. It might be in the "Unique Mods" thread.

If I find it, I'll post it.

lethal93ta posted his gauges three times in the Unique Mods thread:

https://ls1tech.com/forums/14001443-post740.html

I think someone else posted theirs too, but I haven't found it yet.

There may have been a different post in that thread, but there are some missing images.

This guy put a TA dash in his truck and made a custom gauge cluster.

heres what i did with mine but they arent 5" gauges







sorry for the huge picture its just off my cardomain


if i remember correctly the 5" ones are a tough fit with the other guages just because there is not a lot of space.

i ended up having to triim quite a bit of the stuff behind the factory gauges out just so i had enough space. there is also the air ducting back there that can get in the way quite if the gauges have a lot of depth to them.

this is something i did probably 5 or 6 years ago and since then i have thought about making a gauge bezel to raise the part and get rid of the glass and just have the gauges present.

still considering it but i have another car im working on now and this one is pretty much finished so i dont want to tear it apart again
