Default Gauges in center vents

Just finished this up.. Already had 2 1/16th" gauges for a triple pod, but for me, looked to ricey so decided to move the gauges to the vents.. I use fernco couplers as spacers and installed the gauges.. Fuel pressure/wideband/trans temp.



Sorry, little blurry

i love the looks of having gauges in the center vents... i did it to my 93 t/a, but hated it cuz it blocked all the airflow!
looks good though!

Thanks.. I rarely use the A/C or heat... So not all that worried about it..

Does your stereo have a setting to make it illuminate in red?

No, I just pulled the radio out a little and removed the panels under the steering wheel.. Then I used a hole cutter(1 1/2") and drilled a hole through the HVAC behind the left side vent. Ran all my wiring through there..
