I used the autometer 3 pod dash mount from Summit on my S13, cause the dash is stupid low for me, even with a race seat/super low mount. $10, puts the guages right at tach height and distance, just a bit further over - I love it. Just have to throw some 'glass on it and it'll look really nice.
In the pic I've just thrown a gangsta bandana over em so you can't see the back of the guages (and the hole in the dash) from the front.

Break out the fiberglass. I searched for a long time for something clean and well suited before using a holesaw, there isn't much available that doesn't look like total ass.

How good are you with glass bud?
I've seen those defi pods in a 240 before. Bought off ebay and trimmed to fit, looks badass when done right

Gangsterness is here! Just have to wire it up to the car and a few more touch ups.

That setup is awesome, props for that
To the OP, I think for our cars, the only easy painless way to get the 3 guages like that is either the DIN size thing, which you didn't like, or one of the plates thats fit into the center HVAC vent, and can hold 3 guages. That is much closer to the line of sight that you want. I didn't see anyone mention one of those....

Yea but the gauge holes are angled toward the driver. True their "website", is on cardomain but their craftmanship is excellant.

does it come with the whole center including the shifter surround? and does it come in that finish or is that a custom one?

Fiberglass FTW. It takes a lot of time and patience but if you do it right it'll be a one in a million piece that fits perfectly. I just created a bezel for my boost controller to hang from my headliner out of fiberglass. Picture is kind of blurry and it only looks like a wall switch right now(:keke: ), but it'll get there.
