Default Position of guages

Hi

I want to replace the standard radio in MY02 WRX with a a single DIN one. This should leave a space with which i wish to fill with some guages (turbo, oil etc), can this be done ?

has anyone done this, some pictures please

Ive searched net,but i have not seen any guages small enough, i was going to mount them on the Standard Subaru filler plate.

I hope i have made sense

any answers would be a great help

thanks

Would look good but would be right out of your field of vision. Go for the dash pod with 60mm defis

I take your point, but i dont want to look at them all the time, i just want to know if the oil pressure is fine, or that the oil temp is not too hot.

SO it is possible ?, where would i get the guages from ? and has anyone done it ?

thanks in advance

Looks quite good molko....

Depends on how much it costs..........

Have you had a look in Demon Tweeks catalogue for gauges?

The din size defi thing looks cool
As Jasoon says - Depends how much.............
As a guide - my 60mm defis in my classic were around £500 including the pod and control unit so i guess that will be similar or cheaper

STI Racing can source the Defi's cheap. Worth asking them for a price on the DIN unit. It's probably megabucks over here
