Default Gauge Relocation

Ok, i got tired of people pulling up next to me and saying "i wont race a car with gauges" so i fixed that problem. What do ya guys think? The HVACs have to go to the glove box, some wires (i think it was like 14 or so) have to be extended to make the controls hook up. The vacuum lines are long enough and do not have to be extended.
