I wouldnt even do that. Depending on your style, I'd get two 5" gauges and put them where the stock ones are now. They have some of the multi function gauges with like 4 different gauges in one. Kind of like your left side gauge. Then make the right hole your speedo gauge

I don't know if its in your budget or not but you should consider running a nice 2.5" x pipe. It would sound so much better than duals
