Default Anyone installed their gauges above the glove box in EG?

I was thinking about putting all the water temp, oil temp, pressure at the area above the glove box. But I don't know if I'll have space behind the dash. Anyone did this?

Post some pics and the instruction. Mine is 92, so it doesn't have any airbag over the pass. So it's a bitch to get in it unless I take the dash out.

I have a 93 coupe, I put three gauges above the dash board it was a bitch. I would never do it again. First the air bag must come out , and there is all of your heating piping right above the dash. Its a bitch but it looks tight. Hands got all scraped and **** from reaching everywhere....

That's what I was wondering. I saw that piece above the glove box and was going to cut it. How did you do it? Can you give me some info and pics?

I have a93 coupe, and I mounted them in the dash, using the autometer angled inserts. I just cut out the sircles, and inserted the gauges. I have 3 there. it wouked out great...I just had to remove the glove box. then everything was right there. I ran the wires behind the climate control and radio, and so on. easy install, about 1 and 1/2 hours.
