Hey, they have a 6th gen. Civic DX cluster on a 5th gen. dash...Wierd. I don't like that setup personally...But if you like it, that's all that matters. Hope you got the setup to match all those guages though.

I think KJEG94 might have that. Can't remember though.
I know someone one this board has it for sure though.

Re: gauge mounting... what do you think? (cccya)
does anybody have any other suggestions? I'm tired of the same ol spot that EVERYONE and their mom uses. I have a 5" tach that was a gift to me, so I'm definitely going to use it.

If you have to have a 5" tach then by all means go for it. I think it looks better than mounting it near the a-pillar, but don't you loose the use of the two center vents?

Re: gauge mounting... what do you think? (cre18)
I'm not a big fan of that model. I'd have no need for a 5" tach and I'm not crazy about how those end gauges would be propelled in event of my passenger side air bag deploying.
Hmmm, Summit is on B/O huh. Did you try some other mail orders (Jeg's , etc.) they may have some in stock. At last resort call up Autometer and ask if they are on B/O everywhere, if not they should be able to tell you a dealer whom has one in stock to sell?

Re: gauge mounting... what do you think? (shawnhayes)
Maybe you are right, at first glance I thought I saw the purple/bluish ring around the speedo. It's a picture too far away...

Re: gauge mounting... what do you think? (ThunderLips)
i thought about it before but decided that i did not want all the guages at the place. Now that I dont have **** in my car i took all of them out. (boost, af, ect...) autometer.com has the guage pod under guageworks i think.

Re: gauge mounting... what do you think? (civicatuofw)
ya, i have that on my ride. I really like it. Nice location, very visible. When i bought it 3 years ago it was pretty rare plus i hate typical A pillar tach's. (and didnt want to buy the JDMMM cluster just for tach) anyways. Ill post some pics for you when i get home. It looks funny in that pic. It honestly looks better than that. Ill get you guys some good angles. haha

Re: gauge mounting... what do you think? (KJEG94)
Putting all of your gauges on your A-pillar also creates an amazing blind spot when doing anything other than drag racing. I bored mine out so I could fit my Greddy gauges, now when I run canyons I have to crane my neck on left turns.

Re: gauge mounting... what do you think? (GapxGuy)
Doesn't look very functional. Who is gonna look clear over on the other side of there car during a race? I have a shift light in the gauge cluster and that's all you really need.
