sorry about the above post without the picture, I just learned how to post pics. This is my dash, it uses VDO gauges because the needles light up and they don't crap up the look of the gauges with their logo, its done tastefully. bullet LEDs are tied into the stock harness for the idiot lights, highbeam, check engine and turnsignals. The green square is a Gadget seller voltmeter for the O2 sensor, it works real well

^man i love that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
im planning on dilling mine into the center face of the dash (right above where the radio would be) and angling them toward me a bit. i sapose i could put them in the radios spot as i took mine out, but i like the dash idea cause it not as far to look when you have the pedal to the floor. i think theres about 2" behind the dash right there befre any ducting or wires.

thanks, on my old Omni I did a dashpad overlay out of 1/4" plywood and covered it in matching vinyl, it looked good and the flat dash was handy throwing burgers up on it. I hope Stargazer doesn't mind me pirating his photo to show you the concept
