Currently working on making myself a more refined pillar pod for this, the individual pods are very hard to clean, and the pillar is not a great long term attachment place.
The column was a great place, if you had an aftermarket steering wheel, I could see as many as 4, but two fit very nicely with the oem wheel. Ash tray also worked pretty well, but again, as said earlier in the thread, not a great place to constantly be looking while driving. Better location for less important gauges.
my 2 cents.
