Ya thats a pretty tight lookin spot. I hate doing anything behind the dash lol

Wish new cars still had volt and oil pressure gauges

This car is way easy to do stuff behind the dash, It took me 10 ten minutes to pull the dash and get my new deck in... Uploading some pics now...

Lol must be nice. I swear, every single car I've worked on was a major pita

My F-150 was the same way lol... just push the vents aside and pull them like handles and the whole deck area came off

You might also try to do it in the little spot for switches on the right side, we did one for my buddies accord over there,

I'd put a tint or film over that volt meter. Its bright as fuck.

they have volt meters on ebay for under 10 bucks that are the same thing as the stinger with out the big case. thats what ive got in my car now, tucked in on the left side of the steering wheel where some dead switches were.
