Default Three Gauge People...help me out...

I need to intstall an oil pressure gauge, but my pillar is full. I am racking my brain on where/how to mount the third gauge. Drilling the dash is not really something I want to do, so I am looking for another solution. Any advice, items, pics, etc would be extremely helpful.

On the dash maybe to the left? Close the A pillar.

I saw that, but it seems to be a custom job.

I've seen people use the modifry plate as a mount. It's not exactly factory finish, but you don't have to cut anything.

I know you've already invested in two gauges but perhaps this could be useful to others in the same situation willing to spend some dough..

I'm running two PLX DM-100 gauges (A pillar), which allows you to run four parameters at once.

In my bottom gauge, I simultaneously run Boost, EGT, Oil Pressure, and Oil Temperature. On the to gauge, I just run AFR. I could add water temp, IAT, and fuel pressure and still be able to fit all eight parameters on two gauges..

Didn't 'kix' just install a oil pressure gauge right on his steering column; would you do that?
