I am thinking about adding at least a boost and a pyro. I would like a trans temp but I guess I don't have to have one of those. I would like to see pictures of where any of you installed them and if you like them where you put them. If you had to do it all over again would you do it the same?

What car are you putting them in?
A lot of folks have removed the ash tray and make a cover plate and put two gauges there. Or you can remove one of the center eyeball sockets for the AC and put them there as well.

someone here did a little VDO (I think) boost gauge in the cluster where the clock is mounted. It turned out really slick, and I am definitely going to copy the idea for my own car. I guess the downside is that you can't squeeze two gauges in that spot.

I had not thought about putting one where the clock is. That is a great idea. I would love to see a picture.
