Chris that is brilliant! Love the fit and finish, very nice, damn near OE! Now the question is, what else can you stick in the old cd player slot besides the oem gauges? Would an safc fit in there?

Thanks for the compliments! I am not sure what else you could stick in there although I am sure an SAFC would fit almost perfect. You could easily create some sort of custom panel to mount in there which you could cut out little holes for things like a Turbo Timer etc... I just like the CD player like this so much better. I will be sure and post pics to once I put the factory guages in.

Can you adjust the cd player now with your index finger and hand resting on the shift knob?

Can't wait for the rest of the pics, nicely done.

Yeup I was looking at them really hard to find any sort of misalignment or non-OE-looking issues, and there were none. Hence the mad props!

BTW do they make a cd holder for the upper slot? I'd do this tomorrow and fill it with that holder if they made one.

Is this supposed to be new? I thought this was an old post or something. This info has been out for months. Just curious.

The OEM Mitsu guages which are a factory accesory fit there PERFECT! I will just have to paint the surround to math the rest of the dash cause its black and needs to be silver/titanium color. I will post pics once I get the guages in and a write up to. I will also post pictures and a writeup of my Subaru STI boost guage install!
