in looking for for a place to put guages in my civic , other then the pillar.. this just makes it easy for thieves to see you have stuff done to your car.
i was wondering where everyone has thier guages mounted?
i was think i could mount then under the radio/in the vents.
any ideas would be helpful.
ill be mounting 3 guages not including the one on top of the steering colum
any pics you have of gauges in a eg please post them up..

thanks for your help.

btw- i searched: guages/ guages eg/ eg guages/ custom guages. i didnt get any good results.
if you can find something better through search you can post that up and call me a noob..

 

wow, thanks for the help guys..

 

Get the jdm center console piece and custom build a block off plate and install them in the block off plate. This will cost you a bit due to having to buy a jdm center piece. Autometer makes a piece that goes across your pass. side dash that holds a 5inch tach and I believe 2 gauges. I have also seen ppl stick a gauge in the drivers side vent. Be creative

 

 

thanks to both of you,
i am looking for more stuff like 92civeg posted.
looks good :thumbsup:

if you are reading this and you drive a eg, post where your guages are, even if they are on the pillar.

thanks

 

nothing special.. just drilled a hole and very visable

and..

 

wut kinda cluster is that??

 

what center console is that?
did it come stock in the 5th gen's?
if so which ones? 4dr?

that looks good, thanks for the help.

 

It's the "JDM" console which was actually optional equipment for the 92-95 civic. You can buy it at eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...44572

 

were they available in the us models? or was it jdm only?
if so, which ones?

thanks
