[T3] Gauge points

["Robert Hornstein" <rsh3585@hotmail.com>]

<x-flowed>Hi
Well with all this talk about gauge mounting points. My Gauges are above the 
dash but, I'm not looking for the stock look. The VDO metal cups work well 
just reverse the mounting brackets so that the assembled hinge is to the 
rear of the car. The Hinges mount though the speaker grill. the gauges are 
level because the dash slopes forward. Make a gauge housing over the speaker 
area using an under-dash mount, upside-down and sloped back, then make a 
cover to match the rest of the dash. Someting like that worked in the Shelby 
350's
On later Type 3's the two fresh-air vents, below the ashtray, make nice 
stock looking locations for two gauges.
