alright guys, i need to put an air/fuel ratio guage and a vacuum/boost gauge. where should i put them and have it look like a good install? i would like to keep my stock cluster intact if possible. here's a pic to show where i am at right now...

 

This wouldn't work so well with the the tach where it is now though.

why not in the ashtray or in the vent or on the door panel ledge

 

depends if you don;t need to loook at em al the time i would go with the center console where the window switched go, or hanging on the undersise of the dash next to the radios like in front of the passenger but angled to driver. but you may need to fab up something to close the back so it looks clean.

 

I'd go with the ashtry if I were you.

 

ashtray...definatly the ashtray.

 

I've got the same stereo deck in my 87 Formula

 

Try the air conditioner vents...right about your tach. If you can figure out a way to make that work that would be a pretty good spot and you could see them well if you angled them.

 

If you were willing to move the Tach then you could run the three guages under the A/C vents like my 91 Z (pic here). Maybe disassemble the cluster, remove the stock Tach, and install the aftermarket one in the same space?

 

well, i don't have a stock tach, iv'e got the cluster with the big gas gauge. i guess i really don't need to look at them all the time. i thought about in the ashtray, i had my water temp and voltage gauges there for a while, but then i put it back to stock. i even have the angle rings to put them there, and the piece of aluminum that i used to fix them in place. putting them in the air vents would require modification to the vents themselves, the gauges are just too big in diameter. anyone got pics of clean installs of gauges in unique places. a non clean install is not an option.

 

here is an old setup in my old car, it required extensive modification to work though, i would like to avoid this as i currently have switches in the place of the gauges in this pic.

 

Damn that looks clean! What happened to the car?

 

My oil pressure guage.

 

Hey! That's my steering wheel!



(no not using this as an excuse to show my new halos off )
