[QUOTE="Kangaroux, post: 7519753, member: 628495"] Alright so this is what we got for some headunit/volt meter action. The dash kit I got has a 1/2 DIN slot for an equalizer, however since I am not using an equalizer I figure I would put that empty space to use. With the cover removed: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Eieix.jpg[/IMG] Took the cover and cut out a space for the mini volt meter. Beveled out the edges with a file and then I just used some titebond to attach the volt meter onto the back of it. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/CWrLR.jpg[/IMG] Because the volt meter was a compact version it didn't have any casing over the circuit board so I wrapped electrical tape around it just to be safe. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/2Rxnh.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/OXZ8Z.jpg[/IMG] And just a quick test on a spare PSU I have lying around to see how it looks [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/JbPt0.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/LYIhp.jpg[/IMG] I'll snap some pictures tomorrow once it's fully installed in the dash.
