Default Where is a good spot for oil pressure and water temp gauges?

I'd like to retain the factory gauges as well, so anyone have a good spot to put the side pillar gauge leads at? I know I've seen a few cars setup like that before..

I missed something here...
Doesn't your stock cluster have both water temp and oil pressure?
