Default Do a center piece between those two to hide the wires

But, I really like those. Where did you have them done? I'd like something like that to replace my dash pod.

The wires will run along the top and not show. I made these myself and no I'm not making anymore!

Default Really?

Even for a VDO Boost gauge and Oil Temp? Regardless... if you want them... I've got them.

Default It's easy to get to...

You just have to pop out the rubber stopper in the grommet. The exit is actually quite high in the engine bay, which is deceiving.

Default Sweet....is it possible to angle them towards the driver side?

That is definitely the area I would like to put in pods since I don't use the ashtray anyway.

I tried that, but it screws up the overall look. I didn't like it.
