a/c relocation to shifter panel info?

I have been searching for like two days for any write-ups or info on how-to DIY relocation of the ac controls to the shifter panel and install gauges where the ac controls were. I could probably do it without one but, I am a very visual learner and could use a step by step. Anyone know where I can find this info? Its not in the archives. Thanx

Thanks - some of the threads are so old that the pics aren't showing anymore.
Does anyone have this setup in their car?

Does it fit well? Can you fit 3 60mm gauges where the AC controls were?

if you read my post you would see that i said "these are not my photos"

but anyway, the person who did take those photos re-located the commander's screen to the steering column...i'll try to find that pic...

---edit---

found & resized the pic. see below...

I'm bringing this back from 4 years ago. I love how this guy integrated his commander into the car and moved his a/c controls to free up space in the console.

Does anyone know what kind of plastic filler is used to achieve this sort of result? Or am I way off and this was done with a new mold?
