Right now my new baby is sitting at the tune shop. They are going through the whole car an making sure every nut an bolt is correct (seriously).


So for now i need to get an idea of where im going with this interior I've always had a good idea what i plan to do so let me her your thoughts an input.

I really only need about 3 aftermarket gauges but with me not having Hvac an if i replace the whole center console think i should just move the meth switches to where the knobs for the hvac would be an put 2 gauges in there?















This is exactly what i plan to do for the instrument cluster.

Replace with factory bezel. Put a radio back in and put the gauges where the HVAC controls would go.

Man this thing has a BUNCH of weird stuff with certain things done lol

Like the first owner was trying to make it a show car i guess.


The 3 digital gauges in the center console are for a freak amplifier temp.

I guess his plan was to put this huge stereo into the car.

Even something like this would look better.

I just hate body color interior pieces in our cars. It always looks overdone to me.

I like the switches for sure an those will be the kind i go with for the meth kit.

I just need to have some room for the radar an stereo deck.

i much prefer a clean "OEM" look..... i went with one of Paul's center console gauge clusters. I'd ditch the clock pod, the a-pillar, and call it good. lol. Get a wide-band, a boost, and a H2O temp or something.


also, you're idea for the console is WAAAY better than whats in there. I hate those white faced gauges.

I wish I could find one the looks that same way but the only complete ones I can find are just the speedo tach fuel oil pressure.


i guess that way I can have an excuse for the puller pods. I may just reduce it to 2 pillar pods tho
