Angarak Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 The AEM is a 52mm if Im not mistaken, only 52mm slot is the clock one. To fit it in a 60mm vent you'll need to fabricate some form of 'face plate' to tidy it up. Only other alternative is an A-Pillar gauge which will support both 52/60mm gauges. Do you really need the clock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 only 52mm slot is the clock one. Simon's car is a facelift though so his clock hole is bigger. 60mm I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRASUZUKI Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Just measured my (facelift) clock (it's on the bench in the garage:)) 62mm (give or take). The hole in the dash is obviously a little bigger to give clearance, so probably 63 or 64. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldy Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 jake your right a 60mm gauge fits lovely in the clock hole but i really wana leave the clock, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRASUZUKI Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 You could take the 'guts' out of the vent. Leave the housing and the adjustment 'ball' in place, but cut (read break:)) out the adjustment knob and vanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldy Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 thats what i was going to do but after getting the air vent out and in bits its too big and will have a gap around the gauge, not quite the fit i was looking for. i think im going to weld a blank in the air vent hole recut the right size and paint the dash,not really what i was wanting to do as i dont think ill get a spot on match to the rest of the dash,so i guessd im gona be painting the whole dash this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
