TM-2, EGT and CD player in, took ages to get them sitting right:

And lastly the switches :p I got a bit carried away with the measuring and now I have provisions for 15 switches :D

Next stop powder coating then it will be in for good :)
Here is my set up , the consul was there but not really being used , the ARB switches were on the floor level and the Engel temp was just stuck in the middle somewhere .
So I got to it last weekend

It may be a while but when I have mine all fitted in and together I'll grab your postage details off you. I might suggest modifying the mounts though I could have buggered up there :(
Well I picked it up from the Powder Coaters today, dropped in to get some stainless screws and got stuck into it :)
When I cut my CD player hole out; I cut it too close to the side making it quite difficult to put a screw through the side mount. So instead I had a look in my leather working gear and hey presto... it is now attached on with snaps :D
Heres the pics:
Side plates in, after a lot of hassle :(

Console in

The bit I'm a bit disappointed with, I'll have to cut a spacer out to fill in the recess so you can't see the screw threads

All in with the UHF repositioned down near the fuse box

Hey!
I'm thinking about getting one of these MUD consoles, as I intend on running my 200TDI on WVO (Canola oil) and a few extra gauges (pump pressures and temperatures) would be really handy :P
To the guys who made their own, what did you use to cut the metal? I would of thought a dremel? And where are the nice switches coming from?

Hey mate
I just used a jigsaw with a metal cutting blade, then filed to fit
