I did a search on this & couldn't find much. How about posting some pictures & showing off those 2nd. Gen. non-stock dashboards! TomM, maybe I should say non-stock dash. To me, your's qualifies.

I like the lane dash but it looks like it's not flushing up with your original dash. How does the unit fit?

John
Great Pictures, Keep them coming!!
A quick comment. I have a Covans insert & bowtie gauges, no tach, speedo only & the 4 smaller gauges. I centered the speedo in the panel with two gauges each side. When I set it in the car, low & behold, the steering column isn't centered to the instrument cluster. The center of the speedo is offset to the left about 3/4''. The cluster looks great on the work bench, but it looks like crap when installed because speedo isn't centered with the column. Any comments are welcome.

It's flush now, it just needed adjustment and all the bolts installed.
I re-installed the column before i completely secured the dash.
thanks

AHA! Very nice choice. The brushed aluminum looks great against the gold interior! :thumbsup:

Tom,
Those gauges look awesome. They have to be the most easily readable gauge I've ever seen. Great choice!

I've heard negative comments about the noise of the stepper motors. I've also seen these gauges used on high dollar builds. Go figure.

Anyway, I just keep coming back to this thread to check them out. FWIW, my personal favorite.

I agree and like the looks of those gauges myself, great job.:yes:
Thanks guys....

If they do make noise, I doubt I'll hear it over the 3" exhaust.... LOL

I agree, I have the full 3" exhaust with Flowmaster Super 44s
Those gauges remind of the VDO gauges i used to use in my VW's.
