Gauge mounting Ideas

Hey guys I jsut got a Cobalt Auto Meter Air/Fuel gauge and need some ideas on where to mount it.

1st off I do NOT want it in my air vent or a gauge pod on the a pilar of my car. I also do not want to damage or permanetly deface the interior anywhere. I want it to look tasteful but not visible from the outside. I do not want my car to have gauges stuck all over the place on the dash and pillar. When I see other cars that are modded and I can see 600 gauges from a mile away sticking up everywhere is tacky to me. but thats just my Opinion, dont take it to heart please.


Anyone mount gauges somewhere else?

Thumbs up how about...

i put a nitrous gauge in my center console cupholder, then put a rubber piece over it, mainly so my parents dont accidentally find it. I looks nice and fit good too.

I feel ya about the guages. I think I "might" be mounting mine in the cup holder also. StangInRearView: do you have any pics?

Its the 2 1/16 sized gauge so it wont fir in my A/C...plus
i dont like the idea of defacing my car in ANY form.

A pillar Pod is out of the question too

Im still stumped where to put it
