    Default V1 Concealed Display in Cluster (w/Pics!)

    Here is my concealed display install from today. Let me know what you guys think!

    I already had my Valentine 1 concealed display customized (made thinner, custom LEDs, wire coming from the side instead of plugging into the jack).

    I do need to replace the clear plastic piece on the guage cluster because the previous owner scratched it up like crazy, other than that I love my custom cluster!

    This is the cluster with the hole completely dremeled out.



    V1 display fit inside and cord hidden and coming out of the left side of the cluster.



    Cluster back into the car and a picture of it at start up.



    And after the startup sequence when driving.

    Do you have a separate mute button?

    Is that a custom bezel piece ontop of the guages, does not look OEM for some reason. Just curious. Great job non the less!

    And yeah you could remove the clear plastic, it does look a little messed up.

    Nope, I honestly rarely mute it only if there is a passenger in my car and I can still easily reach up and mute it if needed.

    The entire cluster and bezel is completely OEM. I'm going to call my local dealership Monday to see if I can buy a replacement clear/plastic piece.

    Thanks for all of the comments everyone! Now I need to finish the rest of my interior and get my kill switch panel finished.

    Why don't you try to buff out the scratches?
