I doubt that ANY of the rest of us here that are maniacs for Sciroccos have 
EVER owned a Tiredbird... much less yanked gauges out of it to mount in 
the S...  <g>

Get a Neuspeed 3-gauge panel (cheap, approx $20) and mount it where the
ashtray 
and single gauge now exist.. a zillion of us have done that, and it's clean 
and trick.. if the gauges you have aren't VDO, ditch 'em and go for it.. VDO's 
*belong* in VW's!!!
