Default DVD & Gauges

Im in the process of having HiFi buys install my audio system in my 03 Es300. The whole dash has to be fiberglassed because they do not manufacture a dashkit for this model. so i was trying to get a feel for how it would look. I photochopped this picture to see what you lexus fanatics thought. as of right now this is what they are planning. give me all your feedback; good or bad.

the guages are going to be made by cobalt. Also i would like some feedback as to what guages i should put in there. there will definately be a voltmeter for my 3 amps that is a necessity. i was also maybe thinkin an air/fuel and maybe nitrous for down the road.

or

i could have them install alpines new din size center channel speaker underneith the dvd player instead of having them put one in/on the dash

let me know what you guys think

Based on my experiences I'd plan on getting the surround on your AC Unit pulled off and sprayed to match your custom surround or it'll look funny.

I like the idea of the center channel. The gauges aren't really needed unless you're going to do some FI on your ES IMO.
