    Let's see your track/race car dash and guages!

    I finally deleted my HVAC unit in the center of the car. I also deleted all of the extra vent tubes in the dash. My plan was to use the Hard Motorsports vent panel for 3 gauges and add cutouts for my window switches (yes, I still have the power windows for now).

    Hard says that the foam dash will eventually sag and the gauge panel will need extra support. What have others done here?

    Its a Sinco Tech 908. You need to input all the signals yourself so obd1 or ob2 doesn't matter. To be honest I wasn't sure about it at first but its proved to be reliable for my needs

    Pretty typical. Our old setup (before Aim dash) had the gauges along the top of the panel. They just fit. Left more room for witched and things, but that looks good!

    This panel was from MKAH and the gauge holes were precut. He also included the attached brackets that go into the old radio. My fabrication skills are extremely poor!
