Default Slick Boost Gauge Install....

Ok, so this isn't a 951..... but slick anyway....

I think this is much cleaner than the gauge pillar approach...

Alot of guys with MKIV Supra's do something similar. Their factory LCD clock is the perfect size for your ordinary 2 1/16" gauges. Mounts it up and to the right, pointing nicely towards the driver

Someone should come up with something similar for our cars, using the vent with the odometer reset button. I'd be all over that!

My car hads the boost gauge in the dash vent on the left, the previous owner had it installed there. They used a piece of textured plastic and glued it in...so I can't change it if I need to without breaking it.

I'm looking to block the left center vent, to make room for a boost gauge, Valentine 1 remote display, and a dual oil temp/pressure gauge. It will be a while, but I'll post pictures when it's done.
