07-27-2010, 11:34 AM #1I'm looking at getting a boost gauge and possibly an egt gauge (probably Autometer) for my 300D and am having a hard time finding a good place to mount them. I want to avoid the A pillar because I feel like it creates too much attention. Do you have any recommendations on where to mount a couple gauges? Any pics would be appreciated.

I really like that one that replaces the a/c vent but w/ temps in AZ being so high I think I would regret it immediately.

I like that too, it really is a slick place for a gauge. Forced, how is it supported in there, did you have to fabricate something?

I gutted a vent ball and glued the gauge into it.
