The Cal-look Lounge

Hi im looking for some pics of Gauge Layouts in the Radio Blank/speaker area/glovebox, to get me motivated and inspire me to get cutting.

cheers ;)

I put some VDO's in the glovebox compartment..... gives a bit of sleeper atmosphere... Greets Dennis.

NICE DASH!

Dig the gauges in the glove box... very clean.

(But...   umm...   the tach gives away the sleeper look just a wee little bit) ;) ;)

~DR.

really like the clean lay out of fdk's. one day would like to make a similar pattern with my current set up, rocker switches are for fuel pump and ign.right gauge is a hal-tech air- fuel rich/lean gauge via oxy sensor. bill

here are few different ones

A few more

and a few more

Those Jet Cockpit guages are SWEET!

The second last one looks awesome Shubee! Who´s car is it...?  :o ;)

   I always pretend it's a big clock....to keep my eyes on the time... ::) ;)

Here is another gauge layout which looks as if Volkswagen would have done it.

This is going to be my dash lay out. I already killed the perfect dash, so nothing stopping me there.

Im liking the first ones is that shop still running?

The second one dosnt seem to load??

 :o thats alot of cutting! dont think i wanna go that far, gonna look good th dude  8)

The first link I am not sure about. The second one the website is lacking. If you search for Grumpys Metal on The Samba  there is more info.

Try John at Grumpys Metal Fab info@grumpysmetal.com or if you live in Europe you can get them from me. The panels are of superb quality and fit like originals.

Grumpys makes One Piece Grills they are the Bare Metal and the Blue ones, Kafervwrostfrei.de welds a ring on the outside see yellow ones Grumpys are way niicer I have had Both the difference is the yellow one has a ring welded to the outside of the stock grill look at the cuts of the bars compared to the others Grumpys are finished rounded edges where they meet the center ring and are one piece

Yeh but do they do these for RHD as im in the uk? and the speaker is on the oppisite side?

cheers

Yes, just look at the last picture in the post before. Give John a call, he does also grills for UK cars.

@ bugkeeper,how much do they cost(I mean a set)?

I sell them for CHF 129.00 or 87.00 Euro plus CHF 4.50 (3 Euro) shipping uninsured. Insured shipping to Belgium would be CHF 11.00  (7 Euro).

are this available for gauge 80mm ??

Fredy, if not available, you might do it yourself. Here's few pics of my layout done recently :
