gauges where the radio is?
 
Anyone know where to get the cover and the gauges that replace the radio? thats prolly the best spot and get an aftermarket radio in the cubby hole infront of the shifter:burnrubber:

Or another option would be to do an aftermarket single din and instead of a cubby hole under the radio you can do 52mm gauges underneath. Here's an install I did in an a6 since theres no gauge mount solutions for it.

I like this, the more gauges the better, but just can't do without the radio, and wouldn't like 1DIN in the bottom position. What I would prefer is a set that replaced the useless analog speedo, or a radio that supported native nav and a gauge cluster through BT.

I do like @PrimeMotoring's Way of a top mount radio. But id love all a 6 gauge slot. if im going turbo it would be fun. Radio wouldnt bee bad in the cubby slot. if its connectd to pandora the whole time..

I forgot what company, but there is one that replaces the center dash vents and has room for 3 gauges there. Looks killer and its such a small car use the uppers or lowers and you'll be fine.

Will probably be WAY easier (and cheaper) to make one yourself. You can always relocate the radio to the glove box...wiring should be fairly straight forward, since it's basically right there anyway
