I have been looking for a 6 hole gauge panel that fits the Auto-meter supplied gauges 2-1/16" & 3-1/8" diameters. I am having no luck at all.
Has anyone found a panel that fits these gauges?

Does anyone make one for 4"/2 1/16"gauges? I have found a couple that will machine them but it's not cheap.

I've fairly well come to the end of my build, except the inevitable and continuous trying new things. A couple of observations or things I would consider doing differently. I like my dash setup, I did not buy the original piece or gauge set. It looks great and is quite adequate. However, were I to do the car all over again, I would not put the fuse panel under the dash. I would most likely put it in the trunk. With the AC unit under the dash, accessing even fuzes is a pain in the ***. If I couldn't relocate the panel to the trunk I would seriously consider a dash arrangement that allowed removal of the gauges and opened up the rear behind the dash.

I plan to use one of Tim W's dash panels which when removed provides access behind the majority of the dash. My fuse box for the LS can also be removed for access.

That is exactly what I would recommend
