    Ordered one along with the scan gauge holder for a first gen off of your website. I cant wait to get them, Thanks!

    Just noticed the clock/switch panel, wished I would have gotten it as well, but I can't fathom what I will use all six switches for.

    That scangauge mount is brilliant. Any plans to make one for the ultragauge?

    I don't even have a Scan Gauge yet, I am really liking the Ultra Gauge, just hoping a Scan Gauge shows up in the classifieds to try out. That or I'll order the Scan Gauge and give the daughter the UG.

    Yes, I'll take some detailed pictures and use my calipers to measure it.

    Send me a pm with a good email address for everything

    Can you make a switch panel for the second gen area in front of the cup holders? Here's a picture with the area I am talking about outlined in red.

    I'll buy an ultragauge and send it to you if you want one in hand.

    It would be cool if your mount has the unit ever so slightly tilted up and towards the driver for better visibility.

    Just ordered an ashtry bracket. Been wondering what to do with that spot ever since I gave up on that as a good CB location. And I've got some new backup lights :D

    If you'll get me an address, I'll send you mine. I think with the radius on the corners and edges, it will be hard to mimic. I'll have to pull it anyhow to take it into work to use the radius gauges.

    I want one too, maybe 2. I am going to check the ashtray bracket on the daughter's 3rd generation 4Runner to see if it is the same, it sure looks like it.

    so looking at it, not sure i can do something like i did with the scangauge, however, what about having it double sided taped to the bracket? or velcro? being that its so thin, not sure what else i could do. i might be able to do something so it mounts to their factory mount.

    what do you guys think?

    Velcro would be great if the gauge bracket is angled like the Scan Gauge mount. It would cut fab time, make a duplicate of the SG mount minus the cutout.

    Whatever you decide, I want one.
