Default pic request: Zeitronix ZR-2 gauge in a 951

Hi,

I've bought a Zeitronix ZT-2 with the LCD display but find it's quite hard to read in the sun so I consider buying a ZR-2 gauge (red digits and black bezel)

I found many pics of the unit but only one in a 951 (it was sitting in the vents IIRC).

Has anyone installed a ZR-2 gauge in a panel below the radio ? How does it look like in real ?

Thanks

Thats me I like it there. The shifter can be in the way at times but it doesn't bother me. I don't have any trouble reading the red digits...

Josh: thanks for the feedback. How does your Zeitronix gauge look like in real world side by your VDOs ? Does it fit fine in a 52mm hole ?

Kool: I don't want an a-pillar

I think it looks ok - it fits the standard size hole that those lindsey panels come with. I really like those SPA gauges - I've been tempted to swap out the oil temp gauge out for a SPA water and oil tem guage. Might change out the boost guage for VDO oil pressure as well.

I like the old Alpines - the **** on this one is getting a little finicky though.
