Yes it is the quicksilver , the red indicator works i had to make several bracket with pins and rods , that part took me almost 1 day, also the unit had to be droped below the floor and then i had to make a fiberglass cover for heat and noise . you have to mount assemble then dummy assemble until its right . the gage indicator is the hardest.

Ok, great info mate

i was thinking of cutting and shortening the shifter handle to make it fit.

How many inches did you drop it?

cheers

The only reason i went with the Quick silver unit is because it looks neat and tidy . I dont want to be harassed by the police . I could of used other units but being a street car i would be worser off especially when asked to remove it

If i remember right you will have issues when u drop down gears to low not enough room to set braket for gear selecter . I think i sunk it about 2 inches . First i mounted a ali plate and roughly traced the shape , then you need to place the console and top plate , remove and assemble and cut out in stages .
