I've been considering a 2 gauge pillar pod. Do pillar mounted gauges obstruct your view, or distract you?

Doesn't seem to be too many other options...

Sorry for the hijack!

I don't really find that it distracts me. It was a little strange initially, but it's normal after a while.

You might want to consider this...

I'm getting a little off topic here but... I made a plate to mount my gauges in the console. It's somewhat temporary as I plan to delete the cupholder and ashtray in the future. I'm going to try it this way for a while and see if I don't mind them being out of my normal line of sight.

I used Autometer angle rings to get the gauges facing to the left and upward somewhat to improve their visibility.

Sorry about the poor pics, don't have a great camera!

Yeah, they are made by Autometer. Ordered them through one of those big parts retailers... Autometer part# 2234.

Just a note, the #2234 are for 2-1/16" gauges. The link above shows part #3244 which is for 2-5/8" sized gauges.
