I hate just about ever airplanes instrument panel I've ever flown (well, 150/172/PA-28).

My main issue is that the lower row of gauges are unreadable due to the angle I have to look at them.

Anyone ever go with a non-vertical or 'adjustable' instrument panel? Even though my DB-4 will have mostly LCD displays, I plan on plumbing some steam gauges as backups. But even the LCDs can be hard to see due to glare or bad angle.

Anyone know of an install like this or that has figured out a way to make the gauges/panels more readable??
