FINALLY finished with my interior gauge layout

I have been the last year or so trying to figure out what gauges I wanted in cabin and where. I originally had my wideband where my Oil Temp gauge is now by the boost controller BUT looking down at that location every 20 secs took my eyes off the road 4 too long. I was gonna get a fuel pressure gauge but I will pass for now. Overall I a happy with it BUT would like to keep most lighting amber. It will have to do as is.

Waste of a thread but hell, thanks for looking.

They look high BUT are at perfect level for a quick glance. I looked into the 3 gauge idiot cluster but one of my buddies has one and I think those are no taller.

Yes they are prosport and so far all tests I have done with thier temp sensors with boiling water are spot on!

Thanks guys. Interior has been restored over the years, would just like to install some high qaulity black plush vinyl along the doors where the nasty gray carpet-like material is between the top and grab handle of door assembly. Plus, make the bottom grey carpet on doors black .

So you have an S4 dash and radio surround, but S5 shifter and boot.
Is the idiot cluster S5 too?

Thanks! I always liked that color and it looked familiar. I like the Sonic Blue as well.
