Default Gauge Placements? Any ideas?

Hey guyz,

Im installing 4 new Autometer C2 gauges...I want to keep my Tach where it is...

So where on my 1995 Honda Civic could I put these at?

My Idea: Dual gauge pillar above tach, then a dual pod sticking down from the roof between the sunvisors (or somewhere in that area)

I dont think its possible to add another dual pillar above tha first dual pillar?

Here is a pic:



Ya I know the interior looks like a baby blue in the pic...but believe me it isn't its a bright blue...it's just the camera that I used and plus it was in the dark when the pic was taken...(posted pic to give general idea...)

And NO HATERZ ON THA TAPE PLAYA!!! HAHA...nah its changed now...I got a good excuse for it still bein tape player (I was waiting for audiobahn to come out with their head units, simple...dont wanna waist money on somethin i don't wont, so i decided to wait!)....

Ok I will try to help a bit, Get a dual gauge pod and mount 2 of them on your drivers side pillar, buy one of those autometer gauge pods that hold a 5in tach and 2 gauges. This will mount right above your glove box, kinda where luserkid put his gauge. You can also drill holes where he did and mount them but do it right his looks bad. Use a hole bit to drill it out so its round

I think that should be the least of your worries. what is the need for all the gauges when your car is AUTOMATIC? Why the tach, even if you see what RPM you are at you still can't shift it yourself!

Can't believe I took the time to post...:hammer on my head:

You ******' toolboxes automatically assuming it's an auto cuz there's no tach in the guage cluster. MORONS. I have 5th gen 5spd with no tach in the cluster. IT'S CALL A DX!

But about the interior. Is that the car I drove in the circus?

They know it's an automatic because of the shifter selector in the guages, not the fact it doesn't have a tach.
