Securing the clocks/dials when you only have the upper dash



How have you secured/mounted your clocks/dials with only the upper dash ?

I'm thinking of gluing it in place to the upper dash but concerned it won't be very secure.

I’ve seen a few people secure it with a metal bracket, bolt holes on the clocks and holes on the column. A thin bit of metal you can bend into position and drill a hole in either end.

Given it a good shake and its staying put....

That was using a hot glue gun, i think i'll probably redo it using Araldite.

I cut up the lower dash and kept the bit the clocks secure too and a bit in the middle to mount my epas ecu onto as well, also gave the upper dash a little more rigidity, it's not the best photo but hopefully you get the idea
