What size did you use? 2 1/6 or smaller?

Has anybody done a really well matched Camaro interior? I'd like to ditch the green look of the radio and go with a blueish, or a red like the Pontiacs. I'm talking radios, A/C dash, and the gauge cluster.

I just left the stock bulbs in the cluster so my needle would still light up outside the Z28 reverse indiglo face (had to buy this). For the HVAC, I pulled the little red inserts in the ***** out so they'd shine blue too. Hope that helps!

The SLP HU mount you can actually make. I made one for my 93 Formula. But now someone makes these things professionally, just go to www.humount.com. VERY high quality and I highly recommend it as well! Yep they do have "Trans Am" one already made. I just went with the SLP because I wanted to be different and do something custom which he'll do. Below the SLP, it also has Firehawk #102 engraved in it. Also my originally lit up red, but when I swapped all my gauges to blue, I put some blue LEDs behind it.

Silver Macween's and Autometer Ultra Light. The silvers match great and I put a red light into the autometer to match the dash.

rpm, speed, peak values, & times. But they sell a sensor for every aspect of the car you can tie into it to display virtually whatever you want. Best part is it's more accurate then the stock gauges.
