Where are your gauges??

Whats up all...Just curious on people's setups

I dont want gauges in the a-pillar cause i would rather have more of a sleeper look, those gauges really stand out...
I wish they came out with some gauges that go into the bezel.
What are some other spots?

Where are your gauges?

Mine are in the A pillar, but I like the way it looks. Plus they are alluminum in black so it matches my car. I have the PRofec screen (throttle position, boost, rpm) in the glovebox. The timer is in the 1/2DIN below the radio reading voltage.

No, they are actually custom molded out of fiberglass! Same w/ my a-pillar. Instead of the gauges sticking way out, they are actually sunk in to the pillar.

luvvegas777 nice. Hard to install? Let me know I like that setup. And Civicman67, did you use the universal A-pillar for the gauges on the left pillar? Thanx.

get a 2 1/16" hole saw, well depends on size of your gauges, becareful cause if you look at the bottom of the shifter where the black plastic with the horizontal lines are those move with the shifter. when in park if you have an auto you will have to trim some of that off, just enough to clear the guages. other than that pretty simple. pm if you have any other questions

Yeah the HKS cups look great but they only hold 46mm gauges, not one gauge on that same site fell within that dimension. BTW - it's $37 per cup.
