Can someone measure the opening of the gauge cluster? Height and width? Specifically want to see if something 4.606(H)x6.874(W) will fit in there nicely. This thing. So if someone has a few minutes to print out this template and cut it out to see if it will fit inside our cluster area I would appreciate it.

i have a 98' but i measured 4.25" tall and well over 10" wide.

looks like you need a height of 4.6" or more, you might be able to do some trimming of the black bezel to compensate for some overhang

i'd call it a fit & trim! project approved.

is that just an HMI? (human machine interface)

if you wanna go nuts with touchscreens or whatever, let me know. im pretty sure i can still score xycom/pro-face & horner screens.

Haha, thanks. I really like how it interfaces with everything so it will hopefully work well.

I have no idea. I am pretty sure it has the system in the screen. It is a logger

Hairyglass makes a Fiberglass or CarbonFiber dash.

This was the only pics I could find at the moment (damn NIPR-net)

Weighs about 4-5lbs vs the 65-75 lb of a full dash assembly.

Not a fan of that look.
