That's nice! I would really miss the glovebox space though, and I am worried about rattles when open.
I dig it!!!
Different but nice!
I think a Zoom type 1 or 2 radio console for the gauges might look and function better than the glove box mounted gauges.
If you really need all the gauges, add the remaining gauges under the audio unit.
Such a great build, do it!

last piece to my zoom engineering interior
I took a gamble and ordered the zoom engineering center console for the A/T coz I wouldn't want to waste the eunos roadster shifter ring. I love that piece. The M/T console comes with a round hole by the way. Turns out even the A/T console can be used for the M/T and the

I ordered the black painted console but it is a bit too shiny for my taste. I will soon wrap it with original leather to match other pieces. For now will enjoy how it looks in the meantime
