As requested... THEY'RE HERE!

Tired of Gauge Plates that are made of cheep stamped steel, That don't fit and don't mount well to your NB Miata?

You won't find Stamped metal, cheep plastic or exposed bolt heads with our RoadsterTech NB Gauge plates. These RoadsterTech Gauge Plates are machined out of Marine Grade HDPE with UV inhibitors. This makes the gauge plates extremely rigid and they are designed to fit precisely without modification.

Our gauge holes are recessed and tilted toward the driver for added visibility.

We wanted to come up with a solid way to mount this plate to the NB dash, so we came up with a laser cut mounting clip that mounts to the existing mounting point in on the NB dash.

You may have noticed a small lip on the inside of the gauge plate. This allows a standard DIN mount radio sleeve to be firmly attached to the NB dash!

Using our gauge plate not only gives you a great place to put your gauges but it gives you a great Radio mount as well.

As with all of our products, they are made in the USA.
Choose RoadsterTech to provide you with an understated flare for your Miata.

This looks like the nicest mount out there. I especially like the recessed gauge lips hat provide the angle as well as the radio-sleeve catch.

I am waiting on the glove box design although the gauge faces on top of the radio look great!

Maybe also something like this if you wanted to angle them for the drivers point of view better? I would be hard to read the gauges from the opposite side of the car while driving.

All of the function but none of the form. I think I'll match the function but add a bit of form.

Nice to see vendors responding to the needs of the community so directly! Kind of makes me wish I had an NB.

Thanks guys for the kind words! They let me know we're going in the right direction.
Keep up the ideas... I'll see if I can make them happen.

On our gauge plates we have a stairstep. It's just cut into the plastic. When we do the glovebox mount it will also be stairstepped. It will have a greater angle than our dash gauge plates to allow
Better visibility.


Nice to see vendors responding to the needs of the community so directly! Kind of makes me wish I had an NB.

Never fear, some cool stuff coming for NA6 and NA8's ...coming soon.
I just need to get my hands on an NA8 tombstone. I had to give the one I was borrowed back.
BTW we have something really cool coming for NA6's... Keep watching!

Soon... We're getting our hands on an NB glovebox to go with our dash.
