Ordered the newsouth din panel to do the job, wanted to make sure I could move the radio first.

Ya see it was worth a poke, to begin with it just sounded like a vague thought.

I also need to work out which other gauge to get as it is a 2 gauge panel, I am thinking voltmeter maybe.

Get something more exciting to look at like VAC or oil Pressure.

Might as well get something you can use, Volts rarely need monitoring on a gauge IMO.
