I love '60's Muscle Cars, this is a gauge panel from C2 Corvette.

 

 

 

 

I wish i could remove my factory panel and install after market gauges ''Old Style" to look like these:

 

 

 

 

I don't like that factory plastic cover, i wish i could have gauges like these with chrome ring and more close to me (vertical),

 

''Old School'' as they say.

 

 

 

Something alternative from a @Papez post, gauge cluster from Polo 6N2.

Iirc, it's from MK4 non-CAN Golf.  6N1/Pre-FL Arosa luster might be similar, 6N2/Lupo has different style with large cylindrical dials.

Except the switch for the light (left) he made some modifications to the other switches (right side).

Too much work and you have to know 100% what are you doing and how to fix it in case that something will go wrong after a while.

 

I think is this

Volkswagen Polo from 1994 to 2000 

 

Here is another example from a C2 Corvette restomod car.

 

 

 

I wish i could have such gauges, i know that @nta16 may not agree but in US you can do anything you want in your car.

I like retro electronic dashboards too.

 

 

 

I remember this from Fiat Tempra.

Some of them are over the top for my liking but great collection.

 

Those were futuristic designs of that era.

 

That future came as this:

 

Unfortunately no OBD II port in our car so no fancy digital gauges and applications like Torque.

In my plans was to install a small 7'' tablet in my dashboard but...

But? Why not?

 

A custom ECU application would be the foundation of advanced mods. Let it be turbo or supercharger application or custom dashboards. You name it.

There are advanced tools like 3D printers now to build the dream dashboards.

No local (GR) technician will accept to work in a project like this, the mosy common excuse is ''does not worth it, lot of money, it's an old car no need to do it" etc.
The majority of modifications that i have done to my car were from foreign technicians (Moldavia, Romania for example), even for my central switch lock i dad problems with local electricians:

I know it's not for us...

 

 

These gauges are for C3, as replacement to factory ones.

 

 

 

 

No need for the right side extra gauges ,all in one, expensive though.
