A-Piller pods are the best way to go, otherwise someone on here makes inserts to go where the center vent is, that holds 3 of them i belive.

i already had the vacuum gauge when i bought the boost gauge, so since i had it i might as well hook it up. plus, the vacuum gauges gives a more acurate vacuum reading. for instance, on my boost gauge it will read 20 in./hg when on the vacuum gauge it reads 22 in./hg.

sorry but that doesnt look good, and youd have to look way over to see them youd prolly kill someone before you could read the guages.

And isn't that over the airbag? That could be a serious missle into someones face during a collision.

I admit that it does'nt look all that great hence the reason it's being sold, but if you can't glance over without killing yourself you probably should'nt be driving.
