I was interested in getting this piece and just wondering if those of you that own this have Autometer gauges mounted on it? More specifically, the 52mm/ 2 1/16in gauges...do they fit without modification? Reason I ask is because they have that deep dish rim on the outside of the gauge. Anyone have any pics? Thanks

Note: I've already checked with Gruppe-S about the fitment...

i don't have autometer gauges,but i'm sure they'll fit.i think you would have to bend the bracket on the inside so it can fit.

The 52mm autometer gauges will fit. The front lip is larger than most but it will clear. You will need to bend the right side radio bracket out of the way and maybe trim 1/4" of plastic in some spots but none of this will be visable. Keep in mind that these panels were designed for the shallow mount gauges but with some trimming just about any gauge will fit.
