I got some gauges I was thinking of putting in the car. I used them when breaking in the engine so I could have volts, oil pressure, and tach readings. I don't want a giant tach hanging of the steering wheel and not sure where to put the other gauges. There isn't any convenient location. I'm thinking about fabricating something around the front of the console, but not sure how that would look. I couldn't find any images online. Any one have any clever ideas? None of these are needed, but I would like the volt meter and oil pressure instead of an idiot light. btw, I did the ammeter delete.

I mounted mine to the dash, by the vent cables.

Thanks avatar_Brads70 @Brads70. How are they attached? Screw through the plastic or something less invasive?

There is a metal bar along the bottom of the dash that I bolted them too ( if I remember right? That was 17 years ago.... ) :D
