A-pillar, side of steering column, pocket infront of gear lever, above glovebox facing driver (although a trio of gauges would look better here....VL-T styles ;)
I made a custom panel for 3 gauges in the pocket infront of the gear stick.

that style air fuel guage is damn easy to setup.
just uses the factory oxy sensor as input. then it only needs the usual illumination etc.

Both those setups look great. I am going to attempt something a little different. My dash is apart at the moment and I will post pics once i'm finished.

Well here is my gauge finally mounted. I never used this spot for anything so though it would be a good spot. The surround around the gauge is black leather and matches my shifter boot.
