Oval extra instruments

I want to relocate my oil temp gauge to the centre of the Oval dash, in the speaker grille area. I already have a tacho there in an aftermarket grille with the cut-out. Is there an aftermarket 'rally style' grille section I can buy with holes for three VDO gauges - one large and two small?

set your selfup with something like this. I had this in my old grey 57 oval. Mechanical tacho, fuel and temp all VDO

or find a couple of these samll motometer guages.

The top one Fuel guage was an accessory for Oval beetles. Mounted on the right of the speedo straight in the dash.

Three gauge cluster: That's what I'm kinda trying to do! I'd like some sort of surround for three electronic VDO gauges for my modified street Ovalnn[ Edited on 7-7-2005 by VWCOOL ]

I always liked the idea of a modern version of the motometer rally pack for a custom oval. Make it out of Carbon Fibre with a more rounded shape. Use Modern looking Autometer gauges. Woud be different!!
