Default Aftermarket guages

Well, i'm installing all the ghia stuff into my S-Pac, and that means the LCD cluster too...however, the S-Pac sports cluster is better (for obvious reasons) but I can't pass up the novelty of the LCD Speedo...so here's the idea:



Remove the doors open/closed panel....

and stick battery/oil pressue guages there. Is it possible? Where can I get guages that will fit in there? would it be possible to take apart one of he ricer guages (that you mount on the a pillar) and put the internals behind that panel? How much should I pay for said guages?

Those guages, well the good ones, are water filled. It'd be possible but not worth the brain damage it'd cause.

ive got a Speco Volt gauge in my car atm that cost me $30 at Repco. There are alot nicer gauges but they cost ALOT more ;) It does the job and looks ok.

I will be "apparently" installing where the Doorajar display is. This is when dellboy tells me how to :P The other place you can mount the gauges that are common are the tray at the front of the centre console
