Default Quick Need Advice On Where To Mount Gauges

I have 2 HKS 60mm gauges and am stuck on where to mount them. I don't want to put them in the stock pods b/c I like the gauges that are there. Please post pics and ideas if you got em and would like to share. I need some advice quickly.

Thanks,
Ryan

if you're not using the nav compartment, you could put it there, also the passenger dash is really plain, you could mount them into the dash.

The air bag and ECU might give you a problem on the passenger side...

Leemik (Mike) put them here (see picture below) when he added his Procharger. I remember someone else mounting some gauges in the "arm rest" compartment and someone else put their AF gauge in the round air vent on the door, but I can't find either of these pictures right now.

Id go nav compartment unless you wanna make yourself a custom gauge pod for the Apillar. you buy little stick on things that look ghetto, but with some fiberglass and alot of sanding it can look very very professional.

navi compartment, BUT angle the gauges toward you. I dont think ive seen somone actually angle the guages. I guess it would compliment the angle of the stock guages. And it will also help you see them.

Another place is the sunglass holder. Im sure it could be done with a little fabrication.
