Those would look great in the A pillar or mounted on the hood. When it comes to women and mods you gotta barter with them, buy her a nice pair of shoes and you get to install your gauges...win win:thumbsup:

That trip piece pops out so you can cut that inside the house instead of doing it inside the truck.

I was cutting it outside because little pieces of plastic go flying everywhere with the dremel, I pulled it off and cut it up on a metal dumpster lol...my wife would kill me if I made that kind of mess in the house

I took a few measurements for the 52mm gauges and cut them out of the abs plastic trim piece today...disregard the screws in every corner, I put them in temporarily to keep everything tight while the jb weld was drying and hit it with the heat gun to get a smoother radius

After everything was dry I removed the screws and attempted to attach the 4d carbon fiber wrap with the heat gun (first time I've ever attempted this before so don't laugh too hard) :D
