I did that with my Duster. I used the Autometer 1 1/2" mini trio. It turned out ok. I'll try and get a pic for you. I'm going to do something more custom this time arround tho. Probbably an aluminum plate with the 5" Tack and Spedo with the 2"-2 1/2" oil, temp, volt or amp, and fuel. I saw something like it at FOBO.

question: im going to first rip the interior somewhat apart. im putting in a black floor carpet and black headliner since both are missing lol.
do you think i should leave the interior blue? or get black door panels,seat covers, paint whole dash?

why go black? that blue is killer!!! and if you go cheap on the carpet i mean a non molded one you will kick your self in the A$$ and i mean that.. i went cheap in a 73 challenger and even after i sold it i wish i never went that route. keep it blue!!!!! less asprin, but john the G did a awsome job!!!

well i have a A-body brand new black carpet not being used. and i dont know the blue kinda stands out way too much if i do keep the blue should i go with black floor and headliner? or blue floor and headliner also?
How would i fix the seats? i dont know if seat covers would look like crap or not

yeah blue and black would look cool. since the door panels and everything else blue is in so good condition may aswell save the money. but would seat covers look good you think or like crap? like i really dont know how to fix the rips in the seats haha

you cant "fix" rips in seats and have it last more than 6months.. if you want just covers search and search. and dont expect too pay less than 75 bucks for the front seat, with just covers. i learned the hard way....but if you opt for a total skin replacement, its not that hard to do it your self just some automotive grade fabric and hog rings, and hogring pliers. and a hd power sticher...

for those prices, you can score a nice set of late model buckets and redo most of the interior. ive even been thinking about adapting the fold up rear seat assembly from a quad cab ram for the back with the storage underneath

its your car, do with it what you want. We can tell you what you should get, what you should do, where you should get it from. But in the end, its all up to you.
I think it the black and blue is done right, It will look great.
