I wanted to transfer (3) 2 1/16 inch gauges into the bottom part of a GXE kit. I was told it would not fit. Does anyone have any other ideas for installing these gauges in the dash area. Thanks.

Fiberglass is your friend...

So I have to have a shop custom fit it, right?

I would def say go to a custom place that does good glass work as well. If they mess it up they have to fix it. What are the three gauges for?

Check this out, it may be what you're looking for. Alot cheaper than custom made fiberglass mounts anyways.

Thanks for the help, But: I think those holes are too small. And how am I suppsed to prop that panel up with out it looking cheap? I have the metra kit right now. Anyway, I am currently looking into getting it custom done.

The holes are too small by 1/16".
Mounting the panel isn't the hard part.

You are not thinking outside the box....Recess mount them, and they will be fine. Push them back 1/2" and make your mounting plate sit back a bit.

Too bad I don't have the pictures of my 3 gauges in the DIN opening of my old 93 Sentra SE-R. I simply bought a HKS 1DIN gauge panel for 30 bux, installed 3 gauges in it and it worked great.

I have a smiliar thing laying around the house that I bought for my Maxima that allows me to mount 3 2 1/16" gauges under my radio. I have 3 Blitz gauges that I wanted to put under the radio but I never got around to doing it. Maybe one day when the Max is a full out race car I will ditch the radio and run 6 gauges in 2 DIN panels...... BTW- Autometer gauges= cheap, inaccurate BS. DEFI, HKS, APEXi, Greddy, Blitz all make GREAT gauges. But most of them are 150+ dollars each. You get what you pay for....
