Default Will three 60mm Gauges fit in a 96-98 EK Radio Din?

I want to use some 60mm Defi Link Meter BF Gauges. I am going to get the gauge pod that goes into the radio din. I wanted to make sure that 3 60mm gauges would fit, because most are for 52mm.

I doubt it. I have a triple DIN 52mm gauge plate and the tholes are barley big enough for them....

yeah that's a 99-00 console

maybe it would fit in a 96-98 if you included the pocket area

Ok thanks. I guess I'll have to figure something else out. Because I really love the Defi Link Meter gauges. Anyone have any ideas? By the way I have a 97 HX.

Gauge pod that goes around the steering wheel (around gauge cluster area)

This is where i put mine on my 97 civic when I had it.

Don't know if they make if for 60MM gauges, but you could enlarge the holes.

I eventually moved my AC controls (97 civic) down to behind the cup holders and in the old AC area was enough room for 3 60MM Gauges.

That seems like a lot of trouble

they fit fine, you have to trim a bit around the outer edge for the guage to fit in....
