Anybody have a closeup pic of the altimeter.......

mounted on their dash? I purchased one on Ebay a while back, and don't have the right dash for it to mount on. Trying to find a way to make it work, regardless.

Thanks for any help.

Left dash meets right dash.

Thanks Corey, but my setup doesn't look quite like that.

They are Toyota.
They came on the overseas 2nd gen 4Runners and Hi Luxes over there.

Also they are made for a right hand drive rig, so I had to have the base on mine modded to sit on the right side.

genuine toyota.
If I had to it over again (my opinion) though I would not buy the Japanese unit - the tilt-a-whirl is cute but isn't actually useful except to entertain idiot passengers for 5 minutes, but the Altimeter I used! (Had one in my 85 -of course we have mountains in Oregon also...) and the JPN alti reads in meters and is hard to read.
