They also make one like this, but i think would obstruct the view of the cluster

thinking about trying one of them though

Looks legit though.

That 2nd one would definitely be in the way.

If you do end up getting it, go ahead and write a review in the review section for us. I'm sure others are looking for good gauge pod locations.

I would take it if the first one only had the 2 on the one side and a vent on the other still.

- Wed Nov 07, 2012 5:15 pm #319429 I had an idea for 2 additional gauges... Pop off the big windshield defroster vent on top of the dash and put a hinge on the back and a latch on the front (similar to the way the cup holder opens and stays closed) and you have a great spot for 2 prominent gauges that can be completely hidden when you don't want them displayed.

- Thu Nov 08, 2012 3:21 am #319479 Creative! I'm having a hard time finding excuses to not have gauges (boost, oil, afr) even tho I already have them. I'm having an even harder time finding excuses to keep them, I try to imagine what is truly important to a regular driver and the pro/cons list is dead even......

This is best idea ive seen besides the typical gauge cluster on the drivers pillar. My gf has a degree in collision repair and fabrication and she said she could do exactly that for a fraction of the cost.

Ill post what she can do once she does it and im sure she'll offer the service as well for cheapppppp :thumb:
