I would fine a similar width of pillar cover , Autometer makes hundreds of them & adapt that to the pillar to add guages

 :D I did it in a 70 cuda I had sometime back.You just get a universal gauge pod and use a heat gun to warm it up and shape it.Heres a pic of it.

Looking to do the same thing on my Cuda. PO installed a 5" tach in the speedo location of the non-Rallye dash. I like the set up, but I need a speedo (and odo).

I'm considering installing a 2 1/16 Dakota Digital unit in the A-pillar, but really wanted to see a similar application before I sprung.

Thanks for the pic.
