Phillip,
Any room to get two more of the small gauges (oil and amp) in that panel?
I preferred to have them all in the panel, but I just couldn't make it look good. I had a friend lay it out for me using CAD. He tried but it just wouldn't fit. See photo I took of the drawing below:
You might could swap the angle of the smaller gauges (move top gauge towards outside edges), but you would still have the bottom gauge partially covered by the plastic bezel. With the curvature of the plastic bezel, it would cover more of the gauges if you moved the bottom gauges in toward the middle.
BTW, the inner ring of the gauges in the drawing it the actual hole size. The outer ring is the gauge bezel size.
This is how I decided to mount my other two gauges, in the plastic dash pod bezel:
Hope that helps...
