Why don't you just get some pillar gauge pods from Autometer.

Cause everybody and thier grandmother has something on the a pillar why not be original...I am cutting out my dash and putting a euro civir cluster in...or going to try anyhow...93 prelude dashes hate.

I was thinking bout fiberglassing a lil boxe to hide under the dash in the clock area.

I guess it's unique for me since I drive a 2dr 90 Accord w/H22 and since Autometer doesn't make pillars for my car, I had to modify the civic HB ones to fit. I want to custom fit the Civic bezel with the dual gauge pods by Autometer on my car but that seems like a lot of hassle. I recommend putting gauges in the glove box cause it's easy and a very clean look, but I understand you want it on your dash.

I flush mounted my gauges in the dash on the passenger side. A autometer a/f ratio, water temp & oil pressure. If you want help, let me know I can take pictures and help you wire yours up ... just reply/email me...

I think he needs more than 1% taken off his rating.

I put my boost gauge in place of the a/c vent on the driver's side door. Looks pretty slick, and it's very hard to see from outside the car.

I also used the ash try area to mount my J&S gauge when I used to have it.

Stereo shops can usually do fiberglass work for you if you can't.
