    I hear you Kallen would be great if a Nissan dash pad or similar could be utilized.
    I know early troopies {75s} had the 2nd tank binnacle on top of the dash but they are like
    Rocking horse apples now, Mdf some foam and vynyl
    Low profile nice big sweep to it might get 3 guages in it.

    If your keen td the father in-law had a vacume cast thingy, uses it for his planes. I recon a block of foam fashioned into shape, then plastered, and sanded smooth it would make a grate cast for fibreglass..
    I'm keen.. just bought a egt setup, soon the 2nd battery monitor and tossing up to go after market oil gauge or not..
    Cheers

    @ Kallen before most mates retired or took golden handshake
    I had full use of Qantas workshop with that Vacuum former amongst other equipment.
    thats why I refere to some things as coming from "Q-Mart"
    They were my go to Quality controll, Got my head around it now ,
    Even if I make a MDF sample it may be good enough to form others
    How many thou can it do. They make great map pockets IMO lol

    @ Lucas always been a Paj thing, they tell me sort after now, don't know why.
    if elbow touches ground you have rolled easy, if head touches you've flipped.
    If seat turns brown ,close to doing both of above
    how hard can it be lol

    @ Kallen again, can't have too many guages to monitor engine functions IMO
    Just a red light coming on doesn't seem right, plus too late as well

    It would be nice if you could have a "Heads up Display" for all your Guages.

    Maybe someone here has knowledge on HUD's

    Its 700x700 so could get 2 in a mold.
    I'm thinking something which molds off the side of the original cluster suround and tapers off in both directions, with gauges slightly tilted sidways to face the driver more..
    Cheers
