Default Custom gauge panels?? Custom electronics panels!!! Look, Look!!!!!

Hey guys i posted some pics of my interior on another thread and many people asked where i got my gauge panel. well i order from this small company
http://www.42draftdesigns.com/mk4tgp.htm
i then asked about some csutom panels for vtec controllers, turbo timers, other gauges.

so i'm asking how many of you guys would be intrested in a panel for gauges or a vtec controller or turbo timer. because if he gets enough intrest in a particular style he can produce them. double or single din

so let me know what kind you guys are intrested in

right now for me i'm intrested in a single DIN panel for apex vafc that makes the vafc sit flush with the panel. any other ideas or suggestions???

yeah, the panel is standard din sized and fits perfect where the radio is in my eg, and it fits autometer gauges too. but they already sell the triple gauge panel.

i was wondering if anyone else wants them to make other radio sized panels for turbo timers, vtec controllers, other gauges, so i want to hear ideas.

I know the gauge holder can be made easily, but i am asking if anyone is intrested in custom panels to hold something other than gauges.

thanks for the other pics though

you could always relocate the radio in the optional audio console.

I would have to see how that company had my VAFC positioned before I paid them any money. With the DIY you can get it to sit how you want it. I may want a little more out so I could mess with it a little easier.

There are a lot of creative people on this site and probably close to where you live that'll do it for cheaper and maybe a faster turn around

I'm deffinately interested. I love your setup, it's made dope! My radio is still in the stock place so would there be enough room to fit the vafc in the audio console, and could it be hidden by a flip down door or something?
