Default single gauge...where to place it?

those of you only with 1 gauge, can you post pics?

i think im gonan go ahead and get the interceptor scangauge..and that takes the place of most gauges...

the cubby hole near the shifter is not an option...

im thinking something custom...but where?

always liked that vent by the driver door, or maybe a single gauge pillar pod.

yeah, ac vent might be an option
not the pillar, i think the pillar needs 2 or 3 gauges to look complete..

Have you looked into the 6LE design? You can replace any AC vent or cubby hole to fit a gauge.

Here's the link.

Question where can the panel that fits in the cubby hole in the picture above be found at? I love the look of the install and want to install an interceptor in that location.

Is that out of a Trans Am, Camaro, Aftermarket???

It looks factory. Thanks!


And if anybody knows what was the up/down switch originally for? I'm sure I can wire it to something, maybe a cut-out open/close down the road!
