Progress so far.....Other than the angles I'm pretty much just chicken-winging it.
Will get a drawing and actual dimensions for snot rocket after it's finished.

Whew she is SNUUUUUG!!!! TALK ABOUT A PERFECT FIT [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]
Not gonna have it finished tonight. I haven't been able to save enough pennies for a band saw yet (not that I would have space for one anyways....)
Will part it off at work when I am back in town. Maybe this weekend but no promises.

Ok so here's my quick idea sketch. All I have drawn is the main cluster with gauge pods mounted. I'm thinking attachment would be with 3m double-sided adhesive. Thoughts?

That's actually genius. Is it possible to make them pop in where the grey panels pop out around the cluster? Or is that what I'm looking at?

That's also an idea I've had. Glad you agree. But I still think it would need another attachment point to avoid rattling

Well realistically the chances of getting away without making a hole/holes somewhere is pretty slim.

That's the route I want to go with my design

Sooo....i was screwing around and accidentally popped off the whole cover while I was driving [emoji23]
It's not just the grey trim. It all pop's right off the front.

Hmm. Does it pop on real easy after? Might be able to that route too

So after a quick search I found the needed part to experiment with. A few problems with this though are 1. I'm broke. And 2. I'm broke
Before I can get an actual working prototype I need to buy one of these, a kinect 2.0 (to be used as a 3d scanner), 2 universal gauge pods, some putty and sandpaper, a 3d printer, and 2 aeroforce gauges of my own so that I can test fit everything together. Once all of that is done, I can scan a prototype out. Fix and issues, and print one out to see how well it will work. It may be awhile but this idea is entirely possible

Damn dude are really going whole hog. ZZP you wanna jump in on this???
Isn't there a scanner you can get for you phone? We learned about them in my fourth year apprenticeship schooling.

Not detailed enough. Hence the kinect

Wow I almost forgot about this thread...I ended up scrapping my initial mount and just trimming the universal ones to fit. Apparently I forgot to post pictures!
I just got out of the hospital from a pretty bad motorcycle accident so I m not really mobile yet. I'll post some pictures when I see my car again.
