Custom Intrument Bezel
I am about to buy a nice Tachometer from a friend that I want to mount on the dash. But i am curious where or how...something. About buying and mounting the aftermarket Temp and Oil Gauge. I would like to mount it under the dash..does anyone have pics or ideas of how i can do this?

Re: Custom Intrument Bezel
if it is a driver, then I recomend NOT putting the tach on the steering column. At night, the light in the tach will glare off the windshield, RIGHT where you are trying to see thought to drive. REAL annoying. LonghornJeff found this out on an all night cruise from Illinois to Ohio... ended up putting his hat on it.
I installed all of mine in the factory bezel, and I love it personally. |

Re: Custom Intrument Bezel
That's exactly what i want Kelsfine69!
My dash bezel now is messed up and i dont think it all works and i dont want to figure it all out. So the mount kit like you have would be perfect! Did you need to fabricate anything to make it work.. also, this is the tach i got. http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku its 5"..its huge..but im thinking about the dash.

Re: Custom Intrument Bezel
No mods
They are Autometer gauges and then you have to buy the mounting pods. I didnt want to put them in the dash because its just to nice to cut up. I like your tach. I will prob go for the autometer on the dash because the holes are already there
