Default Civic triple guage radio blockoff?

Is there an aftermarket radio blockoff that has 3 holes for 3 guages? I have seen these in cars before not sure if they are custom made or purchased?

Thanks

i know defi makes a 3 gauge din sized cluster. kinda expensive but will fit in any din slot. only draw back is that you have to get 2 temp and one pressure gauge. so no good for boost or egt.

well i guess the one pressure gauge could be used for boost but still i dont think you really need 2 temp gauges but the din sized gauge pod is still and interesting concept if you are running out of mounting room.

check http://www.42draftdesigns.com

Its for a VW but they have a triple gauge pod that is din size and fits perfect where the radio is in an EG civic.

I bought it and the vdo guages from the 42draft website, they look tight work.

Here is a pic from the 42draft website......

I just made me own... I was only trying to get 2 guages in there though. I have the optional audio consoul so I put my radio in the DIN spot on the consoul and then I purchased the radio block off plate from JHPUSA.com. Then I went to the home Depot and purchased a hole saw the size of the guage. I then driled the 2 holes into the block off plate and it works pretty slick you just have to be a little careful because the plastic gets a little thin in places.

I put mine in the audio console. The only problem with my crap now is I just cant see them very well, too much angle. I'd like to get a triple pillar pod and put a VAFC in the console.

I doubt that any of them will. Why would you take out your climate control?

yeah that is why I put my radio down in the consoul and then the guages where the radio used to be below the climate control.

Do you have a JDM console piece? I am searching for a place for a vtec controller. I was thinking of getting a block-off plate and installing it in there. But I am going for the sleeper look.

O wait, you most likely have a 96-00 civic. I apolgize.

Nope I have a 93 si hatch. I have the optional audio consoul. I put the radio blockoff plate where my radio used to be and installed the guages in the plate.

I had one it was custom made. there is a guy on here that sells carbon fiber solid plates, so you can cut yours to size and then take a holesaw to it and make the gauges fit. in any case, have fun y0
