j7aoc :Don't think there's room but if you gave me the measurements i could tell you. Could look into getting one made in place of the clock?h196jne :I just bought an auto specialist two gauge and ACT , the only thing with these is theirs no ACT option which would have been better but i guess they will see how they sell and possibly bring in new ideas
No problem when this new i have comes i'll send you the measurements.

It's really nice to see a decent product being made for the aftermarket, it's rare!
A couple of points:
1) Ideally they want angling towards the driver
2) when fitted, make sure the vent is blanked off to prevent any dirt getting in to the gauges.

mk3modda: Im thinking the same as i think the carbon would look better on a black dash and the satin finish one would look bettter on the grey dash you can get a light grey carbon so the guy is going to give me a ring tomorrow so i will ask
Excursion: I will ask about the angling

I would really like one of these but, if possible......
Is there any chance they can do one that extends to fill the clock space too and therefore allow for 3 gauges?
ie like S1's below (note: i'm refering to the holder size, not the actual gauge layout)..........
I'd rather have one like that and i would happily pay the extra for it.
Also, how long is the turn around on these and who is the order/payment through.
PS. S1, hope you don't mind me borrowing your pic

Don't think fitting 3 in and taking out the clock will be poss as they will have to make a mold and just for one person this will cost to much and take to long they might be looking at getting a ACT gauge where the clock fit's

Sorry but i haven't had one to look at yet but it look's like this It's about as good as you are going to get when using carbon when the clock are plastic and the holder is new and the clock will be about 16 year's old but like i said think they might be doing some thing with the clock. I will add you to the listmk3modda :i want one but what does the black finish look like? i want it looking the same as the clocks finish. like a matt black ?
if so ill have one please
