Nice. Ensure that u put a lot of bolts and screws at the bottom to prevent thieves from ripping the gauges out.

Dudes.. Bad news.. If ur gonna venture into this project, make sure u have adequate window tints, or don't park in extreme sunlight for too long... Mine deformed a little because of the heat, so it loosened a bit.. Or can try buying better quality pipe - Get the WHITE elbows, i used the grey ones.. Just a little bit more expensive..... D*mn.. Have to do again.....

This is good DIY.. end result nice..

but i always want to know 1 thing.. does it introduce
any new dashboard noise?

Nope, not if you drill the holes ngam ngam to fit the elbows.. if its loose, then definitely will creak a little....

Wow. Great work. Very nice job. May i know where did you get the plastic clipboard??? Very desperate hunting for that material le... hehe

Any stationery shop bro.... it comes in different colours... blue black green... with the clip on top or at the side, to clip paper... but its irrelevant cuz ur only using part of it...
Or better still, buy the thick folders with pvc or vinyl cover.. so it'll LOOK a bit like leather to match ur dashboard...
But have to be careful with the edges..or else won't look nice... Good Luck!

Thick folder with PVC or Vinyl Cover??? Where to get? I'll look for it. hehe
Really thanks for the info.
