Custom Dash Cluster

ok guys with more and more of my std dash gauges becoming useless, ive decided to make my own layout using the gauges that i actually want to see.
have measure a few things up and i can fit 2x 3 /34" gauges and 4x 2" gauges
they will be
 
2inch
Oil Pressure
Water Temp
Fuel Level
Boost
 
3 3/4 inch
Tacho
Speedo
 
just after any picture people may have of there own setups or ones they have seen over the years.
 
also what gauges are people running, would like it to be all black so not too stand out and look too ugly.
 
Thanks
Zac

    Contact Simon Piper. The X-Pack Mk2 he used to have had a custom cluster with all VDO gauges and the layout was similar to what you are describing.
     
    I am sure he would have pics of it still.

    Make it go FASTER!
