Default Need opinions with Autometer Gauges and my CRX!!

Ok, well currently i have a dual pillar pod for my crx, and thats all ive seen made by Autometer!! I own a ultra lite air/fuel, and boost gauge, and i want to buy a Oil pressure gauge.

So i will have 3 gauges total, where should i mount them? should i ditch the air/fuel, and get the oil gauge, and put it with the boost in the pillar pod, also my interior is blue, and the pod is black, do you think i should just get a black 3 pod holder and put it above the radio and stuff ontop of the Dash???
If you own a crx u know what im talking about, right on the center top of the dash. well if anyone could post pics of their gauges in their crx it would be of help!! thanks

some people think that gauges on the pod is sorta ricey, and it makes people think that the car is fast or something, just need opinons

A friend of mine found a nice rectangular metal plate at his job and cut it to fit three 2-1/16" gauges into my vents on top of the climate control with the help of some brackets i found at home depot. I also found an in-dash pod on ebay that holds three gauges.

hahah sorry. It is just a generic 3 gauge pod I picked up off of GroupBuyCenter a couple of years ago. I haven't found a reliable source for them but I have seen them here or there on Ebay. They also sold a 2 gauge pod in the same style. The pod fits well (with a little trimming of the pod) right up there.

EDIT:

Here is one in fake carbon fibre

Don't put that Autometer A/F in front of you, the lights are annoying as **** at night... besides from the fact that the gauge is pretty much useless.

Yes there is a way, but you need a wideband to do it.
