Kevin I love your gauges. Where did you buy them??? The dial AFR gauge is sick.
For all teh guys whose boost gauges only go to 20.......<Nelson Muntz>HA HA!!!!!</Nelson Muntz>

Cool monkey.
I'm considering moving my AFR and Boost gauges to below the stereo head unit. I like the visibility of having them on the pillar, but it is starting to seem a little ricey for me. Moving them would allow me to put my Oil Temp gauge back in so all three would be there. I don't really need or use the cubby anyway.
I'd like to know opinions on how much harder it is to watch the gauges while driving if they're mounted in the cubby vs on the pillar.
Any comments on one vs. the other?

VDO - Oil Temp/Boost/Oil Pressure with a Lindsey plate and a lap timer cut into a spare ash tray face plate which I can swap in for track days.

I went with the Lindsey pannel and Sport-Comps.
cb951 had the right idea painting the bezels black.
Mounted the EBC up high where I had easy access and
good view of the boost.

I used a Lindsey panel & VDO Vision gauges - about as stock looking as you can get IMO
They aren't as easy to check when they are down there, but I'm only really looking at the temps & pressures when I'm driving down a straight bit of track or road

Looks nice, but your steering wheel is on the wrong side.

I just bought a blitz sbc i-color, with a/f meter/wideband sensor. Its going in the center console just under the stereo as already shown here. With this unit, I was able to delete the uego 02 sensor, mbc, and boost gauge.

Sicne I am going with a stand alone I was thinking I wanted to convert the original boost gauge to run as intended but directly off of vacuum. Do not know how hard that would be. Or if it is possible but I thought it would be interesting to try.
