Gauges in Dash (also show us your gauges)

Paulc1964au · 2011-09-03T07:39:19+00:00

With a pending engine build happening in the next 18 months I am looking to install a taco, oil temp and oil pressure gauges in my beetle. Would be interested to see what options i have in the type of gauge and where i can mount them. Lets see lots of pics please.

I decided on putting gauges in the glove box and the tacho under the dash forward of the gear shift

I think that is a good place for the gauges you have mentioned, you will just have to find another spot in the car now for your handbag 😂😂😂😂

Kev 😉

I thought rebuilding a VW would be cheap - Shit I was wrong, just don't let the wife know !!!!

Well when i do need them i can just open the glove box to see them, you do have a point though basically this is just to monitor the engine at critical times like when blowing away a certain orange beetle 🙂
