Get the one that goes over the steering column, makross...

Or get the one where we mod our shifter area with that extra hole....

it'll be a good mod. boost gauge = good way to tell of belt slippage.

well if you don't want it in a pod... i'd suggest this: you know where the open area is under the stereo? or above it? kinda mount them in there somehow. i have a buddy that has a 92 CX turbo and he mounted his on a piece of plastic and kinda put them all in the dash. ORR you could do it the traditional way and put them on the steering wheel... personally i'd just use the pod

really the pod on the pillar is the best but u could try mounting near the steering wheel collum. itd be cool near the stereo but id imagine itd be hard to read while driving.

Take a look at putting them where your AC controlls are. It is easier than you think and will only require about a day. Remove the control **** and set them aside. YOU CAN STILL USE THEM. You will move them to the glove box. To do this extend the wires coming out of the harness and run the wires to the glove box. Them will light modification the gauges should fit into were the controls were.



Click it and it gets bigger.
