Default Gauge spot filler idea?

Well,

I bought this...

http://sunpro.com/product_detail.php?pid=16316

And got it all mounted in my car. I'm only using the water temp gauge and the voltometer since I don't like the idea of live oil feeding into my interior. So right now I have either a useless oil pressure gauge in there or I have an empty spot in the mounting bracket. That bugs me. lol I figured I would just find a clock gauge or something to fill the spot but I couldn't find any good gauges in 1 1/2 nor could I find another good mounting plate with 2 holes instead of 3 for 1 1/2. Any ideas? lol[/align]

I love the clock idea but I can't find any clocks in 1 1/2 There's really not much in that size.

Look around Walmart for a small clock that'll fit the open spot.[8D]

Autometer makes clocks in 2 1/16 if you can upgrade the rest to that size
