I am about to remove my double size addzest, radio/cassette and CD player units, to replace them with a standard single din uk cd head unit, in the space that remaims i would like to put a turbo boost guage and clock, are there any off the shelf panels i can buy for this, and simply slot the guages in? or will i have to bodge it myself, if so any ideas. thanks

I would use a bit of MDF [thicker the better]painted/covered etc with the correct size holes made for the dials.

Thumbs up

again, make your own from MDF, only takes
around 45 mins. we also had double units
took out ash tray & lighter, fitted 2 gauges
and boost control, covered in black vinyl to
match dash. its well easy! have a go, you'll
be suprised

Where did you source the dash "lookalike" vinyl?

Look in the yellow pages for coach trimmers and you'll find a good supply of good quality vinyl. It doesn't have to match perfectly, but you'll find something that will do the job.

They'll probably sell it in metres
