Title: New Tach & Gas Gauge
Post by: scarecrow on April 27, 2008, 02:37:39 PM
Was not happy with my VDO tach & its mounting spot in the speaker kickButt grill New Auto Meter 6000 rpm tach surface mounted to dash. (I got the idea after seeing Bob & Ray’s tach mounts on their machines at the Dust of Cruise) Thanks guys  :icon_thumright: While I was at it I installed a VDO gas gauge in a home made speaker grill made from a piece of a “Neighborhood Watch” sign :icon_twisted: :angel:

Mark,

very cool!
My tach is a small sun mini. I didn't want something that took up the whole dash and
the small one worked out best. All my gauges are VDO except the cylinder head temp, thats a S&W ( stewart warner ) oldie I got from Ebay. Hey I really like the street sign theme it works great on the car!
