Thanks in advance
Yes we do actually. I can tell you now, it's definitely no cake-walk. As you saw before, in order to remove the factory gauges, just about the entire dashboard has to be removed. Running the lines for vacuum/boost/temp and power is not too tough, but removing and reinstalling the dash is what consumes the bulk of the time during install.

With that being said, this is the only place I would install gauges in a 370Z. I never really liked A-Pillar gauges, or gauges mounted on the steering column, or any place like that. I mean, it already comes from the factory with a gauge pod, so why not use what Nissan already provided?
