Default Which gauge would you put where?

Well I can't bring myself to install an A-Pillar gauge pod. It is just too basic and lazy. So I decided to go the Ortiz route and got a vent pod and will be replacing my clock I guess for a dual pod there (will miss my clock though )

So with that said, which of these gauges would you guys put where?

Ohhh i didnt notice the afr gauge.

Id get the cluster bezel mount. Easier to see it all.

Id go with afr priority

oil pressure second

boost last.

I don't want to half cover up my fuel and coolant (or any other gauge). Other than that I do really like the cluster gauge pod.

If you want an idea for them in the cluster here's what I did - the middle of them lines up perfectly with the center of the tach and speedometer so I can still see everything. You can buy 3d printed column mounts that sort of accomplish the same thing but the ones I saw mount the gauges fully on top of the column cover, which is too high for an EF at least. Get creative with notching and you can get a much more ideal fit in my opinion

With the bezel you have and the one you plan to buy, I'd do AFR in the vent and oil / boost in the clock. I understand the struggle - I went through this on my build, but just ended up doing the A-pillar triple gauge pod, and added a 4th to a blank spot on my dash (mine is an EG though).
