Has anyone figured out a way to put 2 small gauges in the original radio location without having to cut the metal? Any pictures? Or any pictures of other ways to utilize this radio space?

Ah! 65 that's a bit different. Maybe one of these....

Use a hole saw to cut the holes for the gauges and then maybe a couple of those angled gauge cups so they face you a bit better. Then paint to match.

that's pretty cool starchief. I think I could just fabricate a piece of plastic on my own though. The question would be the gauge size. That square for the radio is pretty small, so 2 5/8 aren't gonna fit.
