Post pics of where your FI Guages are located

Just like the title says... where do you have guages mounted. I cant decide to go pillar or AC vents. Both have their ups and downs...

pillar, easy to see, just look a little left, but everyone can see it, at night they light up and people see it and it just screams I have a power adder!

vents- cant be seen by anyone, fit like their molded, but they are a little harder to keep track of.

Post pics of where yours are and why you like them there and your opinion on what you think.

Being you have a T/A, vents are the best option. I had a triple pillar, kinda looked weird and gave you a slight blind spot. All T/A's that I have seen with gauges in their vents look awesome IMHO.

+1 for vent location......you should've made this a pole

I'm about 5'11" and tend to sit more upright when I'm driving my car (ie....i don't lean way back gangsta style......). I like to have my arms bent at the elbows and up towards the wheel in a much more attentive manner.....this position seems to block the middle guage a little bit. I always keep the A/F at the top pod (so it is always in view)...fuel in the middle (sometimes can't see the very top of the guage where the needle lies....but I don't look at it much anyways), and boost at the bottom pod.

Do you have problems seeing your fuel pressure with the triple pod Carl? I was thinking about the triple with the guages oriented just as you have it.
