guage location question

[boostaddict]

whats everbody doing with their aftermarket guages i have a 2 place pillar guage set and just bought a wide band and then started thinking about where i was gonna put it without it looking out of place or terrible. does anybody sell different mounts made for our supras besides the piller guages

many people have done it but make sure you dont make the mistake i did, get the shallow gauges not the deep ones.

This would probably do better in General or GTE Tech. The GTE guys generally have more gauges than the N/A guys. The only ones I could think to add to a N/A would be A/F and Oil Temp.

That's fine. Since you asked: If i had a boost gauge in my car I'd put it in the glove box... would do me just as much good there as anywhere else on a N/A. :naughty:

I hate to say it and I'm sure you already know it, but have you tried a search? There have been TONS of threads on this very topic in the past.

I took two cups and mounted gagues in their respective places in front of the ones they where replacing and I mounted my boost gague where the lighter was cause I dont smoke

I would try searching "gauge location" or "gauge placement" and try limiting the searches to the MKIII section and then run them again in the build up section.

I mounted my A/F gauge in the lighter socket, popped the lighter out, then used a Dremel with a cut off wheel to open up the socket to fit the gauge. Looks almost stock IMO, plus you have a convenient ignition switched +12v line (the one the lighter no longer uses) right there for the gauge.
