What a cool solution, well done!

Might want to consider a version with molded in cracks, it would, sadly, blend in better with the vast majority of dashes...

I will leave it to you to customize it to your own dash using the sledge hammer of your choice

Will the finished unit have pins to fit the oem mounting points?

I haven’t decided how to mount it yet
I tough about using the OEM mounting point or maybe just using a bit of black adhesive / sealant.
It wont need a lot of force to hold it in place

Wow, you're really good with molding plastic (as if I couldn't tell from the headlight thread)!

I already made one myself by modifying the factory speaker grill, otherwise I'd be interested in buying. Mine came out well so I'm happy with it.

Good news for the brown dash, I could get some brown
But my supplier does not normally sock it, so I will have to buy a full sheet.

Here’s the deal:

I need a minimum of 4 members’ interest, and then I will ask you for a non-refundable deposit of $25 to help me cover the price of material.
Remaining of payment will request when the pods are ready.
I have no idea how long it would take to get it and what shade of brown it is.

PM me if you would prefer brown

Thanks

BTW, I got my Auto Meter angle pod thing, #2234
Doesn’t work with my gauge pod and also doesn’t work with the stock ones.
