I seem to remember the 914 had an optional gauge pack and got the idea from that. Be truthful because i'm going to be at Porsche Escape this weekend and want the Beast to look cool. Nothing is hooked up yet but that is no big deal other than oil pressure.
I tried every location on my car and finally decided that the top DIN was the best for the set of gauges so I relocated the A/C module.
What I think finishes the look is having the mounting plate completely contained in the space and framed by the trim piece.
This is what I mean:





Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
