Nice concept ... nice execution.

I'm a big fan of your "... looks factory ..." mods. You just keep raising the bar higher and higher

As always professional grade looking work from Patman Inc. Seeing this thread and sitting in my truck for almost 4 hours got me thinking of doing something for my iphone, not to mention peeling all the stick on wood grain off.

Thanks again Pat.

Man, I just threw out a whole dash shell since it sat around for so long.
I used some thin flexible foam after i mounted the PVC pipes, then put the foam to the right shape, and glassed over it top and bottom.


Thanks again everyone!

Sorry Pat, that looks KILLER but the ricer gauges are flatlining the whole project. I bought these for my sister for her Evo last X-mas. They go black when turned off. IMO those would look 10x better

Ehh well these were the right price to get the project going. I paid less then half retail cost of one to get both of them....,

After doing these gauges, it makes me rethink my cluster im building, and just throw in the SVT cluster i have already
