I have been thinking about seting up a custom instrument cluster starting with a jimmy-jams.com guage plate and I just wanted to see if any of you guys with custom guage setups with post up some pics for inspiration.

 

This has been a reoccuring topic for a long time. I would say do a search but you have to know how to spell "gauge" first lol (just kidding)

Listen here you A$$ hole... Lol just kidding. Yeah the search feature isnt working on my browser for some reason so I thought I would post up. No big deal.

 

These are mine. They were in the car when I got it, but I think they look fantastic. They're not super bright at night but they're definitely bright enough, the worst itme of day is the time that this picture was taken, darker than that and everything lights up enough with no problem. And they do look great.

I know they're "silver face" gauges, not sure if they're Macewen's or not.

 

here's a Jimmy Jams panel that i installed in one of my customer's cars. i didn't do the flame job though:


here's mine in a 90-92 style dash:

 

Both of those are sweet MW66nova, I am probably going to go with the plate that has 2 3 3/8'' holes for the speedo and tach, and 4 2" holes for fuel, volts, oil, and temp. I thinking of using equis' new white faced guages.

 

i have those gauges in my a piller and ive been planning on using the speedo and everything else and making a custom panel.

 

Come on guys lets see more.....66Nova, the 91-92 looks freaking awesome......Tom

 

Hey MW66nova, are the two custom plates in your car made by jimmy jams? I havent seen them in their catalog.

Here are the guages I am going to be using:

 

one more try:

 

 

the first one in my pics is the plate made by jimmy jams for the 82-89 camaro. the second one is a custom one that i made for the 90-92 dash.

 

SinisterZ tight man.

 

his panel is a Covan's Classic panel and is MUCH more finished looking than a jimmy jams. don't get me wrong, the JJ panel is nice, but i'd rather have a Covan's if i was going to buy one for the 82-89's. too bad nobody makes one for the 90-92's.

 

I think they are MacEwen's... These are the gauges that I want to get aswell (silver) but looking on the site, the pics show the area where the warining lights are to be silver aswell (which I DON'T want)...

 

Damn, all those look so good...So much better than stock..I need to get around to doing some inside work...How much trouble is it to do the gauge changes?????Thanks, Tom

 

i can do it in a day, but i've done a few of them now. budget a weekends worth of time.

 

what sort of backing are you using for the gauges? is that plastic?
