Dual Gauge Cluster Bezel?
Has anyone tried these? I'm thinking about adding another gauge to my truck, but cant decide how to do it. I was thinking this might be interesting.
I was going to add a fuel pressure gauge. Worth it? If so or not, what other gauges would you recommend to fill the extra hole.

Personally I dont like the looks of them, they look to much like an add on, if that makes sense. Why not go with the 650 dash? Yes a little more $$ but you can have up to 6 switches for future use and your 2 extra gauges. I have fuel and air pressure on mine.

I am going to go with the 650 also, but I want 6 switches and have already decided what 2 gauges will fill those spots. PSI gauges for my on board compressor, and for the air bags in the rear.

Ahh ok that makes sense. If you only wanted to add 1 more guage then a 4 pod pillar would be nice. Cory (ziggy) made his own out of fiberglass from the over head console. It looked sharp when it was done.

I have that pod, its not bad, but not my favorite.
I prefer the Quad A pillar or the Quad over head myself...
You also have to have the flat style of dash for that pod to work, the one that juts out as a sunshade will NOT work with this pod. I can post a picture of it if you need, but if it looks like mine it will work.
It can also be modded to hold 4 gauges, but you must be brave with a hole saw...

Thats not terrible, but now that I see it installed, not my style. I like my gauges out of the way.
Any more pics of the over head ones? How bad is the problem with them moving about?

Trey you would like the over head then,only issue is the mounting is to the glass with hook & loop tape & clips into headlined leading edge, sometimes on really hot days the adhesive on the tape moves a little and I have to December the cluster 1/2" no big deal just to let you know, but other than that I love the position and let me keep my '07's grab handle, I think you will like it.
