Default guage mounting in a 4th gen z

im looking to put a few gauges in my 01 z28 and so far all ive seen is people using the pillar pods, ive never been a big fan with mounting them there, is there any other mounting setups out there for these cars?

Default my gauges

I made this years ago, Made it out of hard foam then covered it with vinyl and it sits on top of the dash right behind the vent.







Here you can see it from the back thru the windshield

Get a aeroforce gauge, at most you need two. Even on a pillar pod it looks clean.
