I need some gauge mounting Ideas. I currently have a boost gauge on the steering column, and a HKS knock amp gauge below the HVAC controls.
I got a EGT, Oil Pressure, and Oil Temp gauge for cheap, and need some ideas on where to put them.
I have ruled out the A-pillar, because I dont like that look.
The HKS Knock amp doesn't dim at night, this makes it kind of bright at night, so I would like to leave it where it is.
I am thinking of getting 3 gauge cups, and put them on the dash, just above the stereo.
All 4 gauges I have are defi racer gauges.

Just came across a really clean looking single gauge pod from Monster Sport the other day (pics are RHD, but LHD is also supposed to be available)..

I just installed my WB and Boost under the A/C controls....I know the AEM gauges fit EXACTLY inside of a 2" black PVC coupler. Looks clean and cost 77 cents per gauge! Try to get some pics up later.

I cannot believe more folks arent running the CP-E one. It literally SNAPS into the oem stock location on top of the dash right above the cluster. If you look on top of the dash above the cluster, there is a removable piece of abs plastic that snaps out, and CP-E made a pod that snaps right into it's place. Wiring for the gauges drops right down behind the cluster.
Here's a pic of my installation...

You should buy a replacement steering wheel cover OEM and drill holes to install the perrin gauge mount behind the wheel. I had ordered all the parks needed and was ready to install but then I changed my mind about the tune and sold the gauges but the setup would have been clean. Let me know if you want the steering wheel cover and I can send it to you for cost of shipping. good luck.
