Show me your gauges

Post by HappyFrog »

Sometime soon I'll be needing to fit at least 3 gauges (boost, oil temp, oil pressure) and maybe a 4. (AFR). I'm not a big fan of a-pillar gauges, so I was wondering what everyone else has done?

I'm trying to get a hold of scrap blue interior pieces so I can make welding rod and sheet plastic that matches the rest of the car and then I'm going to make Roman vault-shaped enclosure(s) and weld them on the top of the steering column trim. The top of the column would look a little like Mickey Mouse or the letter "B" lying on its back if you removed it, but hopefully also like some kind of unusual factory installation.

I'm going to need to decide where to put mine too. I'm thinking maybe fiberglass them into the gauge cluster bezel. Just need to find a location that won't protrude too much and find a couple areas where it won't block the warning lights or gauges.
