Here are a few pictures of the gauge panel I made tonight using the smaller 90-91 cluster cover. It has (2) 2 1/16" gauges and a 3 3/8" tach. Panel is made of 1/8" thick black ABS. I secured it with Weldit, some black adhesive caulking and a few L brackets for support.

Nice job, how long did that take??? Lets see some pics of it installed.

 

how do u know how much gas u got left?

 

Took only a couple hours total to make. Once I had the template figured out, it was cake from there. I'll get some pictures of it installed when i get around to putting it in.

The car is a track only car, so gas gauge isnt really needed.

 

that looks sick

how much did all those gauges cost??...was the installation really hard??

 

Looks great, but what about a speedo?

 

looks great! no speedo!!! haha

 

The gauges werent cheap. I think all three were about $180 from Summit. The install was really easy. Like I said, once I got the template done, it was very easy from there. I used a dremel to cut everything. Total cost of the panel excluding the gauges was $2 for the ABS plastic and $4 for the Weldit adhesive I used.

I dont need a speedo. Im only using what I need.

 

dope

Those gauges are cheap dude! Comparing to Stack gauges or SPA Design....thas like freagin Walmart prices!!! But of course...Autometers gauges are as reliable. They just dont have the bling factor that the SPA's and Stacks have..heeehee....Autometer is always with me!

 

i thought it was only 90-91 crx's that had the curved gauge pod cover.

Well, your comparing apples and oranges. Stack or the SPA's aren't even considered when buying "gauges". Either way, $180 isnt cheap for anything.

i'd say it would be a fairly good bargain for a heart-transplant

 

We did one of those a few years ago for an 88 CRX...

 

is the car running a fuel cell, or are you using the fuel level gauge meant for a 65 and up GM?

 

looks pretty good . ill try to hurry and get you the seat rail too . on me .

 

Thanks, John!

 

It looks great, not bad for that price
