lockys96 Posted August 31, 2006 Author Share Posted August 31, 2006 i dont know if i can make a 3 gauge one. if you have a look at the pics, and the old above ones you will see the sock metal mounting bracket sits in the middle. i have displayed pics to show how close my gauge comes to this metal bracket, if i added another one in the middle part, im sure it would result in the gauge hitting on the bracket, therefore not going in fully. here: http://img314.imageshack.us/img314/5124/po4hz6.jpg http://img314.imageshack.us/img314/9963/po5tn9.jpg http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/271/po3ep6.jpg im going to make a reverse mould of mine, and have a go with some carbon kevlar, lol anyways, the latch works fine shown here, closes and open, yippee http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/9659/po1gd3.jpg http://img475.imageshack.us/img475/2678/po2cf8.jpg photchop added to show tripple gauge, lol http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/3695/po12copyxr4.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoboblio Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Would give my right arm to have the patience and ability to do that! (obviously I'd have trouble actually making it with one arm, but you get the idea). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockys96 Posted September 1, 2006 Author Share Posted September 1, 2006 that aint patience, lol. you should see the subboxes ive made, now there you need patience, to much work. i like a challenge, or to have something unique or different. plus, i have invested in a load of materials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaoriFan Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 what i really like about this, is how you have blended the guage holder into the glove box proper. it has the same lines as the Supra body, very smooth. not like others where they look like they have the guage holder attached and fairly angular. i reckon you would sell these easily, would rather have this than a pillar mount. edited for typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
