Default Triple gauge dash pod help!

Hey guys just want to start out by saying sorry if this has already been posted. I recently purchased two new Autometer gauges. I am looking to replace the oil pressure and voltmeter gauge with my new ones. I know the three gauges run off a circuitboard. My question would be... could I with the automotive electrical experience that i have modify the circuit board in order to keep the mpg /shift light /trip computer gauge, and make room for the other gauges? I have not heard or seen anybody do this. but I'm pretty sure that it can be done. judging by the circuit board. Thanks!

If you do get this up and running would you make a DIY, to my knowledge you have to either do just the voltage or all 3. I've yet to see anyone keep the trip/mpg and i've read alot about this issue

Will do!! Either way I am going to attempt this, and if I screw it up then I will be contacting Autometer for a third gauge.

Are you using 52mm or 60mm gauges?

I'm pretty sure it's been done before, I've seen it on this forum. I'll post the link in a sec let me find it.

"Believe me no need for DIY, just break the things that are shown in the last pic and put your aftermarket gauges instead and that's it."

It's really getting annoying how many of these diy threads have broken pictures. :/ There should be a rule you have to attach the pics so they're on the my350z server or something.
