    we made the rings here at the factory. i measured the diameter of the gauges and i used 10mm tool steel and cut them using wirecut edm machine. then polish them. i just snap them in. a little bit force fitted so they wont fall. i just tested if they will turn out nice. some shops can do it for you if they have cnc milling machines and or similar to what we use here at the factory.

    I can't seem to view the pic anymore. Can you update it?
    I wanted to customize my instrument panel as well and I'm keen on seeing what you did in yours.

    Thanks in advance!

    Looks very nice, but I hate you for having digital AC control
