Default dashboard question

Hi all,

my 96 jdm wrx came with no stereo, but has a huge great gap in the centre console, enough for 2 stereos. This might sound incredibly dumb, but does anyone know, should there be any gauges there as well as a stereo ?

There should be a small pocket under the stereo.
