Where to put gauges? I'd like to add a tranny temp, water temp and oil pressure gauge to my car. Where can I mount them besides on the pillar? I thought about putting a T/A dash in and using the vents but I'm not sure if I want to go through all that hassle.
Re: Where to put gauges? you can fit 1 in the "tcs/convertible" switch plate under the radio.
like the one i had in my car.
Part is $4 at the dealer, but you will need a switch to make it look right, if your not a convertible. (20 or so?)

Re: Where to put gauges? I put my oil pressure gauge on the flat piece where the turn signal stalk enters the steering column. It doesn't stick out but it's easily visible since it's exactly where you would look at the stock oil pressure gauge.

Re: Where to put gauges? drill a 2" hole in the plastic part, and it just slides right in.
I made a jig to hold the plate when i drilled it in my drill press, i'll post pics of that later.
