Mounting gauges in a gen3 truck/gen2 runner?
Just wondering what you guys have done? I want something that is simple and clean looking. I'm thinking either 1.5 or 2" gauges. I'd like to mount 3 of them oil pressure, engine temp and a/f mixture. Pics would be great! :kewl:

When I am ready, I will get one of these...pricey, but they look good.

I pretty much copied OOPS' idea (4x4wire), only I cut out the reducer, taped the coolant flange and mounted the sending unit directly. I laid on about 3/16 of jb-weld drilled through the JB and the aluminum and tapped the hole, it worked pretty good.

I could only really find one place to mount a 2" gauge on the dash but it turned out looking pretty smooth.

Oh and a special thanks to Krylon for their awesome paint, lol.
