Here is mine.
Really easy to do but I should have taken more time with it and made it look a little better.

Excuse the paint color/chipping/roughness of the console. That's all fixed now.

Took some plastic sheet, cut it to fit.
Removed the cig lighter & cubby hole.
Glued down the plastic & cut out the gauge holes.
Mounted the gauges.
Ran the wires.

Hmmm I should have used plastic too.

I used aluminum and since I have a convertible I added some wires and placed the top switch next to the fog light switch.

I may have to go back now and replace mine with plastic to get a better fit.
