the gauges are angled towards the driver for better viewing. the 2:00 orientation part of it is just for looks.

Thanks, glad that you like the results. What I used to get this lighting was 2 74 sized super white SMD LEDs for the center console. The 3 map lights are 194 sized super white 12 SMD LEDs. The dome light is a DE3175 super white 12 SMD LED. Personally I think the dome could be a little brighter, but I didn't want to get in to custom wiring an LED panel.

Please tell me who did your steering wheel? Is it alcantara or suede?

Nice job with the steering wheel, reminds me of the CTS-V with its suede cover. I didn't think I liked something like that, but it has really grown on me.

It's alcantara, I got a local shop to do it for me, then I made the "spirit of competition" decal in a mini ploter I have

I live in Ecuador BTW, but I've seen places in the US that do this kind of work, for a LOT of money though

The post on the back side for the mounting bracket actually hit the stereo bracket. So the outside are angled to clear it. And I like the looks of it. It Not hard to read at all.
