Looks good, heard some other guys talking about the Dual gauge "mickey mouse ears" from the Navigation or chrono package mod with a small garmin. Looks like took two tach gauges and then mounted it ?




Nice to see it done. Congrats on the mod.

i think for the dual u need more parts and $, they share one electronic board for the rpm and the speedometer it all one unit with one green plug in the middle, but if u get or have the the dual tach and find a used rpm gauge u can remove all the internal components form the dual and put the internal parts from the single rpm gauge,maibe have to modifield the back part of the dual to fit the green plug and used the dual mounting is abit more $$ but it will look really good

Yea, that's what I was talking about so it will have a touching gauge look.
Yours looks really good with the separate double gauges and just moving the tach over to the left.

Congrats on the good mod. Looks really good with those side shots.



I believe MINI did have factory mount for the GPS on Gen 1 MINI for the front near the tach. For the 360 or 1260. I also believe it mounts to the left hand side of the tach. Not too much info on the older stuff.
