You should have a good market for this dash if you decide to sell it. That is, if you don't try to retire off of it. Looks very nice, I like it alot

Selling parts is not high on the list right now, I want to finish the body+interior first before seriously thinking about selling kits. There are always changes before it is finished. I might want to outsource any serious production because I want quality products and service before promising anything... I DO think about making every part compatible with the stock fiero mountings and lines though. And this fiero is still my daily driver so being able to mockup and replace parts and panels fast is important too. Thats why I build the dash in several sections, the mockups can be removed within a minute. ![](http://www.fiero.nl/forum/wink.gif)

Still wish you would angle the center gauges towards the driver.. about 15 degrees would be sharp IMHO.

I will keep the gauge housing at a straight angle BUT I might angle the gauges themselves in the housing.....These mockup pipes are 80mm diameter and the gauges will be 52mm so theres some room to play with the angle when I get to it. I havent decided yet, I will do that after trying out and see what works/looks best....

Well if you want the guage housing straight still. Then I would have the guages angled themself like you said, and w/e angle you have the guages themself, also trip the actual guage housing that much too. If you get what I mean..Either way good work Fie Ro.

I have searched for quite some time but it looks I have found someone who sells a set of Audi TT vents.
![](http://pff.hostkansas.com/pffimages/dashGTR16TTvents.jpg) He has only 3 of them so now I am going to use only 2 ! this forces me to stay really close to the concept in a funny way (square middle vents in the 3D model)\ Theres slow progress on the mockup these days but I hope to post some updates soon.
