    Can anyone help me as to where I can source the surround needed when you fit 2" gauges in the section below the stereo. I was going fit them where the drink and tray holders are. I have searched the forum with no luck. If anyone knows and is interstate I'm willing to pay the purchase price and freight involved.:YD :YD

    Do you mean the whole console that...

    surrounds the radio/vents/clock, etc, or the pocket that fits underneath the radio?

    Instrument panel

    The panel under the radio, I want to put gausges in there, last year I remember seeing some fitted to a members car on the forum and I cannot locate it. I can only fit two inch ones as space is limited.:YD :YD

    I have three 52mm gauges below my stereo....

    sorry to disappoint you but it's a custom job. To my knowledge there are no panels manufactured for this purpose.Cheers

    Sorry, no pictures. I don't have a camera.

    I made it myself. I cut out the piece under the stereo so the hole is big enough to fit a panel that holds the stereo and gauges. I made the panel from FRP but just about anything could be used to fabricate the panel. I did mine so it would look like a factory option, but it took many hours. If you are not that fussy about the finish you could knock one up in next to no time.Good luck
