Im on a slight budget but i wanted to hook up the empty slot below my deck with some simple gauges.
I was just thinking to go with glowshift and get their DIN gauge holder, its angled though towards the driver like our dash allready is. I was wondering if the combination of two angles are gonna create too big of an angle? Has anyone ever installed din gauges? (not defi ones i dont have $600 at all to drop) If so then could you post up some pics? and opinions are appreciated Thanks!! |

I have the Defi Din unit, it looks great but isnt cheap by anyones standards
 I have my other gauges in an A pillar pod which helps keep them tidy and factory looking(ish), maybe this would be an option?

I wouldnt mind an a-pillar if someone actually sold one! lol Defi doesnt look expensive - BUT atleast you can count on them - and know that they show the real deal... Not like 90% of the cheap as shiz gauges show the same thing as Sun clock in the night.... If you want some gauges - get real deal - if you want only accessories in your cockpit - to make it look better - get the cheapo shiz... -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...
