Looks great. I don't see a speedometer though
on the street I just won't go faster than everyone else..
Thanks guys, BTW don't know if you can see it but the layout is:
In dash L--->R: Oil Pressure, Tach, Batt voltage
In HVAC panel : Trans temp, water temp, oil temp
In Radio panel : Nitrous pressure, fuel level
I might move fuel level to where the oil pressure is to the left of the tach and put oil pressure next to the nitrous pressure gauge....

To get them to stay I used a 2" hole saw to make the initial holes then I dremeled the rest away all the while testing the fit....I had to push the gauges in with alot of force since I wanted the mount to be tight enough to not have to use the gauge mounts behind the gauges.... the fit is so tight they hold themselves in...
thanks again guys...

Looks good man.
Not sure how hes got them holding up but I'm doing mine now and they should be real sturdy. I'm taking the hvac controls unit and removing everything off it then placing a black sheet of plastic cut to the same size and glueing it on top. Then drilling the holes straight through the whole unit. Shove the gauges in nice and tight and mount with the same screws the hvac unit was originally mounted with.
