Default How hard to do a custom Autometer gauges?

I would like to put all of my gauges in the area where my speedo and tach are and i was wondering how hard do you guys think this would be? i know i would need a new template for the gauges, but thats not too hard to make. i just figgured i could use some opinions before i jump into it head first. if anyone has pics of this or any sor of customization they have done with their dash it would be a great help. thanks.
