How much did it cost you for the gauges alone? and how much was the install? Thats what I wanted to do. What sizes were your gauges? I just bought the defi d-link gauges so it can match all the interior lights.

If you dont care about your A/C direction, you can put the gauges in the A/C vents in the door. I have seen how it looks and I think I have a pic of it but I can not find it.

Does any one know the member who has done this of has a pic of it?

Very Cool. However your steering wheel cover needs to go. It looks like a Pep Boys Ad-on.
Sorry it just sucks to see that with such a cool setup.
