Hi there ...
Can you tell me where I can buy a sheet of plastic to build a housing for 2 extra gauges ?
Just that I don't want plain shiny stuff ... need something that resembles the standard plastic with the "leather" type finish.

Hope that makes sense,

G

Either make your own bracket or buy one then cover it with leather.

BTW gauges for what/where?

Get the seat back from a car with the same colour interior and strip some of the vinyl off it to cover the gauge panel. You will get a perfect match that way.

Good idea Ian. thanks
Chu ... bought a voltmeter and oil pressure gauge from a place in Germany. Trying to find a good place for them .

If you want details of the site let me know. They're the new VDO gauges and a lot cheaper than the UK I think.
