Question Advice: Relocating Tach from Dash

Sup, I wanted to move my 3 3/8" tach, but not sure what to do with it. I was thinking of putting it in 2 spots:

1. front of my other gauges, but to the left. Look at pic. It would be in front of gas/temp gauges.
OR
2. attaching it to the A pillar some how.

I'm tired of having it on the dash. What do you guys think? Would it look awkward there in front.

Things to think about:

1. Tach lights up Blue, while gauges are stock orange. That doesn't compliment each other very well.

thanks

I would get a single pillar pod and mount it on the a-pillar. I'm not sure if you can get one for that size tach though. To do that, you might have to go with a 2 3/8" tach. If that's a problem, then I guess you'll need some other ideas.

bobbyd is an unknown quantity at this point
Try and get a gauge cluster from an EX and swap it in. That tach, not to be a d!ck, looks cheap to me.
