Just answered this on in another post in the Audio section. Stillen sells one make by HKS (so I figure you could get them at any HKS dealer) for $30. Its a single din bracket that holds 3 46mm gauges.

For autometer gauges, HKS is better since the holes are alittle bigger at 46mm. I believe the Blitz one is 43mm. Nevertheless, I will have to enlarge with hole with a dremel for autometer gauges. HKS or Blitz gauges are way too expensive.

No DASH (Not Desh) POD exist of the 95-99. Someone did do a single CUSTOM DASH pod for a boost gauge on a 5th gen, that's the only one I'm aware of.

I've already looked for a dash pod for a Max and there isn't one available. You either go with the Autometer "A" pillar pod, a DIN gauge or one of those HID gauge display models. Stillen has a dash pod to fit the dash contour of the 300ZX but you need to modify it to fit. Good luck!

I know this is not really about Dash Pods. Anyway, i'm trying to put three autometer gauges in a din size panel. I took some measurements and it's going to be very close. A din size deck is about 55mm. The bezel around the autometer gauge measures at exactly 55mm. The mounting hole for autometer is around 50mm. I ordered the HKS din panel so I will see in few weeks if it will work or not.

Could you tell me which model of Auto Meter gauges can fit DIN? I went to my local speed shop and the guy there told me that the smallest they had was 2" diameter. 52mm would be a perfect fit.

Well no one else has seen them, so either they don't exist or they aren't too popular.

what youre looking sounds like it was custom fabricated. find a high-end stereo shop and tell them what you want and let them create it for you.

The smallest Autometer are 2 1/16". The link will show the ones I got.

http://www.autometer.com/hp/2001_catalog/racing/59.html

The hole needed is about 50mm and the outter silver bezel part is what I measured. ~55mm. Mine are going to be a very very tight fit. My din headunit will bascially be touching the silver bezel part.

Thanks 1Max2NV!
I'd like to see some pics when you're finished! Still humming and hawing about which gauge to select.
