HKS DIN panel with gauges

Well time to try to decrease the size of the 'to do' list for my car...

The J&S gauge is slightly bigger than the 52mm holes i dremeled out so I have to enlarge one hole (replace the A/F one)

I just ordered both mine from HKS directly.

Jae... I think stereo shops have a 'blank' DIN panel... They may not be the exact height like the HKS but it's close. I'm not sure what you plan on using it for.

HKS also has the other cutout pattern 1 gauge and 2 quarter DIN slots.

BTW - they only come in 46mm... you need to dremel them out.

It can fit there too...

There are a total of 3 DIN spots you could use... 2 up top and the other where the closing compartment is...

I haven't decided which spot yet... I'll have to decide when I have it apart.

I received my HKS DIN panel on Monday and today I had time to install it. I know I'm gonna have to take the dash apart again once I get my gauges (in the mail right now), but I wanted to know what it was going to look like. It turned out great (mine is in the middle slot, underneath the stereo) and I can honestly say I couldn't be happier. Very easy install too. I would highly recommend this to someone who wants gauges in the center dash. No pics as of right now, but I'll post some once I get my gauges in (about a week). I can already tell you it's gonna look sweet!
