Does anyone have any pics or does anyone know if a company sells a gauge mount for 3 gauges in the center air vent on a 1993 240 coupe? If you have fabricated one, what is the best way to do it.

Thanks

That one looks like the one made by K-Works, also With makes one and B-Wave but the B-Wave one doesnt look like it has air vents. I found those in my Hyper Rev Catalog, so I dunno how easy it will be to find those companies over here.

Thats pretty sweet man thanks for the advice. Although I am a very big guy (6'6" - 250). My view of that spot is not the best in my s13 coupe. Was trying for the center vent area for better vision. I noticed in the latest Sport COmpact that McKinney Motorsport's S13 has 3 gauges and the mount looks to be fastened right to the dash with screws or something (Looking for a cleaner look) I may just screw around this weekend with some ABS plastic and the like and see what I come up with. Ill let you all know if I can pull it off

How much could you get one of those made for? I might be interested in one in the near future

Perm. Autometer makes these little cups that allow you to angle the gauges. I was thinking about them, but I didn't order them in time. Regardless, I might still pick them up, there should be enough room behind that fascia to fit them.

91. I'm thinking 20-30 right now. I don't know for sure. Hit me up if you're serious.
