Yeah i agree, my mate is doing the autometer dash for his monaro, he has Tacho, shift lite, speedo, fuel gauge, fuel pressure, water temp, oil pressure, NOS, volts. I think its a tad on the busy side. It just looks way to cluttered.... |

Volts is needed definitely! Too many guages is silly in one spot, but if you put them about the palce as in say 3 + 3 rover stlye on the dash, 3 more down low on a centre cnsole or similiar and you cand do it. Craig Goss has 5 on his centre console and it looks awesome! |

For mini's they should make a light called the 'Lucas' light by Bosche to tell us when lucas has crap itself, it would be permanately on, But if it were a 'Lucas' light by Lucas surely it wouldn't work at all....

Nothing wrong with a volt gauge though, easy to hook up. |
