Nice one m8... that has to be the best ive seen:notworthy

The one GC8 refered looks great also but unfortunatelly it means doing away with the vent:(

Doing away with the vent is just not my cup of tea and to get rid of that
nicelly engineered (in my opinion) cup holder would just be a sin as i also often use it.... hence the din fitment is also what im looking for.

HKs do a din sized holder and the correct sized gauges (46mm)... again not cheap tho.

Defi also do a 3 gauge all in one din set up, but you are stuck with the gauges they supply. One of which is water temp which didn't really interest me as much as having boost and oil temp/press.

Like the look of them wonder if i cant move the vents instead:wonder:

The best compromise would be to fit your stereo into the lower of the two DIN enclosures, fit 3x 52mm gauges into the heating control apetures and then to fit the displaced controls into a DIN sized mount. That way you retain the vents, you can see the gauges and you can still demist your car...

Got a spare facia ill have a play and see if i can improve on it, like the idea. I havent taken heater controlls apart to see if i can reduce the size of the back box yet

Thanks for the idea simon

Defi do some awesome single din gauges (oil temp, oil pressure and water temp) they look great and are really accurate.
