What do you mean by fake gauges?

 

thats gonna look great, where did you find the dash piece?

 

Except for the fuel gauge they are all an idiot light with a needle. They move to preset level and stay there unless the thing they're monitoring has already failed.

 

That makes sense.

 

Actually it doesn't but...

 

Your right it doesn't make since. The only one I notice moving is my gas gauge. Unfortunatly, it seem to work too well!

 

Im sorry to cause some confusion. By that makes sense, I meant thats why they seem like they're not working.

 

allright you guys sucked me in i ordered the panel and the switches.
now how are you going to label the switches is there a program or somthing to print out some decals?
thanks
pete

 

icecold, what are you planning on doing with the extra space under the switches?

 

i'm going to fill the entire opening with bondo then cut in the switches.
depending on how it looks i might just go with 3 switches and my satellite radio controller on top of them.
after reading other posts i see the labels are printed on clear stickers and cut out but where would one get the symbol templates to print?

 

Nick that looks great, I was looking for something to put some extra switches in.

Which panel did you order and where did you order it from?

1C4Z80044D70CAC 2 hole option (this is the one TNT used)
or
1C4Z80044D70-AAB 1 hole option

I want to keep my drink holder tray and the other option didn't have the hole pre-cut for it.

Thanks

 

He ordered the one hole option. If you want to keep the drink holder, you just have to cut the area out. Not to hijack the thread, but here is a pic of mine. Still working with the wiring and switches.

now that I see a finished picture, I kind of like that. I was thinking about building something there for a 10" monitor. That looks like something I could work from.

What's the part numberfor the dash piece?

 

scott how did you label your switches??

Looks sweet Scott. Where did you buy your paint if you don't mind me asking.
