Gauge mounts

I was pricing out gauges yesterday and i found out that it would be cheaper if i ran 5 single needed gauges instead of 1 single and 2 dual needle ones. Im planning on machining a billet mount with them frenched in and i wanted to know if you guys think that would be stupid with 5 individual gauges. The gauge mount would be flushed into my center conesole and they would all be in a straight line. the center console is like 15.5" wide and the gauge mount is liek 14.5; so it would fit good from side to side. but im just looking for opinions.

The savings ends up being like $15

I think I would spend the extra 15 bucks, I think it will be clean looking with less guages... I think less is more! Just my opinion... That way all the guages aren't right on top of each other!

thats the 3 gauge version with ball milled ends and the smaller circle is the keyed switch to lock out my switches.

Materials and machining are free its just taking my time to do it.

Five guages seems like a lot of unneccesary clutter. Just stick with the three.

The 3 hole looks nice, how about a hole for a light between the tank and back spots to indicate switches armed. Just to make it more symmetrical.
