I reckon they might go well in your dash, on the passenger side.

But if you were going to go to the trouble with relocating your head unit then they might look really good there too? I can't picture your interior ATM :lol:

yea that wouldnt be very good have to see how hard it will be to get the cd player in the glove box as it will require some slight modification.

I guess the heater box or whatever is packed behind the glove box?

Would there be enough room to mount it in the glove box comfortably?

It would make it a pain in the a*** to chuck a CD in :lol:

I'd leave your cd player in the factory position just for safety reasons. Does your Tx5 have a spot under the cd player that isn't used for anything, like some of the older one's do? Maybe gauges could be mounted there.

Cheers

its has a little tray thing under the cd player wich is quite handy to sit my phone in, i had a sit in the car today with the cd player sitting in the glove box and its not going to be any good there.

ive had a little play in paint with some gauge pictures off google (my skills are limited :P) and once they are uploaded to photo bucket ill post them up.

cheers.

I reckon either the dash or under that cover that is over the ash tray and lighter. If they'll fit? And if you don't use the tray and lighter of course :p
