Not a bad idea,hey?

I've got one of these in my car, and it is great.  Much better idea than carving holes in the speaker grille or a rack of gauges where the radio would go.

There's also another variant of it that had rectangular gauges rather than round ones.  I think Alex's other FC had one of them...?

Hmmm!!
Maybe an accessories section for this kind of stuff and photos of the real thing??
What do you think RET??
I will have to scan some picks of the 'Smiths' accessory gauge panel WITH CLOCK that I own but no longer have.

5{ready have a section with all the accessories, prices and so on, but it would be nice to add photos of them 'in situ', as it were.

If anyone hasn't seen this stuff, you can find it in our Tech Info section

Norm,

I've got holes drilled in my ash-tray lid where the tacho used to be, so I'm one to talk!

cheers

Hi All
I have seen a few posts lately discussing diffent intrement panels so thought I would bring this back to the top of the list.

[customFC]

Here is a pic of the Smith's auxilary guage panel that goes under the column. This one features a clock and oil guage. I bought it new in box, complete with all fittings and instructions. This panel was fitted to an FC that I had stolen, so I no longer have posession of it.

The same panel could also be bought with a combination of other guages like oil, amp or temp. I have since bought another one with oil and amp, and have bought a couple of clocks that are similar.
Regards
Alex
