Single DIN VoltMeter?

Gold Member Username: Nyyfan1315 Mag USA Post Number: 9650 Registered: Jul-06 | Do one of these exist? I've seen a few 1/2 DIN voltage meters in some people's installs but I have never actually seen one for sale anywhere online. Can anyone link me to one or some? I think Stinger makes a 1/2 DIN one but not sure if anyone makes a single DIN one. |

Nor do I have the skills, let alone the opportunity to do that thanks to the fact that I can't do anything custom in my car. That would be badass to do though. I really want a single din or half din one cause I think it would look real clean. |

Post Number: 5106 Registered: Nov-05 | honestly.. bet bet is to do a prosport premium gauge it is round, but worth it http://prosportgauges.com/premium_series_peak_warning_gauges.aspx i run these in my car, not only the volt gauge.. anyway, long story short.. you can set the peak/low and it will warn you if you've gone over/under that number.. when doing so it will flash on and off red and beep loudly so if you voltage drops below a certain voltage, you will be warned |

Gold Member Username: Nyyfan1315 Mag USA Post Number: 9657 Registered: Jul-06 | Thats pretty cool Kevin. Only thing is I don't know where I would mount it at. I'll look around on my dash and see if there would be any spot that would be good. The peak/low is a pretty neat feature. |

Gold Member Username: Nyyfan1315 Mag USA Post Number: 9663 Registered: Jul-06 | That is interesting Kevin. I'm going to consider the A-piller and the last one. Only thing I don't like is having the "ricer" look when really its a mere voltage meter lol. |
