Summary

I made a holder for three 2" (52mm) automotive gauges. It fit into the radio opening making the gauges near eye level. They are tilted to bring them inline toward the driver. Also included are 2 clips which I glued in with silicone glue behind the panel. Once the glue was cured I could remove the panel and put the gauges in using a dab of glue behind them to hold them securely.

These fit into the car stereo slot on a Mark II VW Jetta

To hold the panel to the mounts, I used M3x12 stainless steel machine screws.
