Dash modification - minimalist trackcar

Has anyone cut down their dash or just run a top dash ? Thinking of doing this to the rally car or is there a universal replacement dash that could be used like the newer cup cars ?

I've removed all the standard dash and am just running a Magneti Marelli MT940/B1 for everything.

You can toggle through the displays to view different readings but the best part is that it has an 'alarm' facility for all channels, so if any temps/pressures go outside a lower/upper limit you define then you get a warning light and the display alters to show that item - I find this a useful feature as it saves you having to keep checking all the dials to be sure that there is nothing amiss.

Initial mount in the car looks like this (but I have added a bit of a hood to stop the light shining directly onto it since):
