Pic Request: The pesky 4th gauge.

I currently have three gauges in the gruppe-s pod. I am looking for suggestions and ideas on where to put a 4th gauge. I've considered putting one on the steering column but i would prefer not to. The forth gauge doesnt match the other three (the three are prosports and 4th would be an AEM uego) so i dont want to add it to the pod and move one of the others. I would like to keep it clean if possible.

Please post pics if possible or feel free to explain some ideas.

Thanks in advance!

Mine came with double sided tape... Velcro would be good too. Steering column is the way to go man. Do it to the right just like Wes' Mine only blocked out if I had a CEL and if I was going over 150... If you do it farther to the right like Wes did then you probably won't block much at all. You could also have a decent shop cut a hole for it in the dash somewhere... We had our A/F meter mounted like that on the left side of the steering wheel in our S2K, nice and flush with the dash.

I just bit the bullet and went to a 5 gauge setup with two on the A-pillar. But then I wanted a little more information anyways
