Update on the interior... not sure if i like the placement of the gauges yet. Unfortunately for our cars we dont have a lot of options for gauges to fit

Yeah but it is functional and maybe most importantly reversible pretty easily unlike holes in the dash.

I like the gauge placement and the way your car is coming together. People have given you a lot of shit but glad to see you're still here and updating

Those gauges look horrible where they are placed; they make me think of Mr. Krab's eyes popping out of his shell... with really big pupils. I think this is a good place to get ideas on where you could place your gauges.

I really like the idea of having your gauges custom mounted where your side controls are located. Perhaps you can delete the stereo control and set the gauge in there, cut holes in your dash, mount it where your dome light is, or at the radio cover door.
