No, not that I know of. But u can fab one up with some plastic from your local hardware store. Then just paint it whatever color u want...

You can get the adaptor to fit a cd player, which covers the curve and leaves you with a perfect din size opening to fit the VW part.

It will fit...........
But until you remove the pocket, it will look like this:

See how the pocket sticks out? If you can track down a CX pocket, it will be be flush with the plate

Yes, thats the exact same thing I put up!

If you look around on the site, you'll see that it is held into the dash by the brackets mounted to the gauges themselves

why would you want gauges there anyway, when most people dirve they arent loking down there to watch the a/f go back n forth or oil press raise whatever you putttign there, might as well just toss em in the glove box give the pass somethign entertaining to watch

DIY with some Aluminum sheets...then either spray paint it, or have it anodized.....Measure outt he rectangle...cuz sheet of aluminum. Use the right size hole saw according to your gauge size, drill out holes, paint...and install.
