Well im not converned with air in my face, more of the looks. But i did figure a 2 1/6 gauge would fit and i could make some small air holes still, just not adjustable like this 0#, the gauge and some area for it to still flow. Im still looking for a good deal on new or used autometer gauges though. But this will be done!

If you have a single DIN head unit you could mount them in the other DIN slot with a black plexiglass panel..

use gauge cups and put one on each side of you dash cluster...it'll look like the Autometer "dual pod cluster bezel" they make for Hondas, etc.

I dont need to measure anything for a reason, only looks and stuff like that. But i dont want them on the pillar them peeps will think i got turbo or somthing. I dont want to be one of those people that pretends they got ****. I was looking at getting fuel pressure, air fuel ratio, quartz clock.

You can put one guage where your clock is. Also, there are the suction cup guage holders that attach to your windshield. Suction cups may be your best bet.
