I would have to agree that it is too much to look at all in the same location. I would rather see all of the extremely important ones in the cluster and the lesser ones in a separate location -with idiot lights that come on in the cluster if one exceeds a specified range to draw your attention to the accessory cluster.

I think I would have remote located at least the volt meter and trans temp gauge. And I hope that speedo/tach has a dimmer function. I have digital in my daily and the filter I was using -had the speedo a bit on the bright side -much like yours in the photo -and -I had to put a different filter on it because it was just waay too much for the eyes at night.

a gauge cluster is meant to be a made with quick glance, not full force concentration. i would use variation in sizes place them orderly. just my .02.

Lol, you guys are making me laugh with this too complicated crap. I know where each gauge is, I built the panel... Don't know about you but it's pretty damn simple to glance down for a split second and scan my gauges... Especially considering I'm not building a mad tyte Jdm as ***** drift/ time attack car... This is a street / strip car... The point of my gauges being in this single panel is so that when you glance in the car, there aren't any easy indicators that it may be fast.. Stock with some wheels and paint... Not a sleeper with a GTX3582R that's about to lay down an asswhoopin.

Looks great. Did you put any indicators in for the turn signals/high beam indicator?
