guages in place of the ash trey??
i was wondering if any1 has heard of a place/someone that sells this. i want 2 guages (oil press. and water temp) instead of an ash trey. i like going for the more sleeper look (my car appearance now is stock,aside from being lowered). my monster tach is mounted under the center vents,so thats off limits now.
a while back,i saw some1 put 3 digital guages in place of the ash trey and had it all molded in flat and everything,w/ a clear piece of thin lexan or somethin like that over them,but thats a little more than i want.
i know most people dont think "uh oh,hes got guages...must be a fast car"..especially since ricers in slammed honda's w/ a fart pipe throw 2-3 guages in the A-piller and prob. 99% of the time the car will wont run faster than 15's lol. eventually i want to put mechanical guages in so i know they are right and dont have to rely on the 16 year old electrical 3rd gen guages.
any info is appreciated,thanks

i dont know of a business that makes it, but one of the mods has a pretty nice custom digital displays in the ashtray. i wanna say it was MetalliCamaroRS but im not absolutely positive. it doesn't look like it'd be that hard to fabricate, and its not very expensive either(minus the gauges, of course).
