Default Where do you have your gauges mounted?

I need to mount a 40mm NOS bottle pressure gauge somewhere in the S but I can't figure out where to put it.

I know I don't want it on top of the dash and it's not something I need to keep a regular eye on.

It's currently mounted to the bottle in the boot but that's not very useful.

Any thoughts?

I use to have mine mounted as below but took it out and put a stock dash back in when I got the dash2 pro



I still have it for sale if you want it.

I'd put it where the big audio button is, 40mm gauge would easily fit in there

If your only fitting one gauge then I'd fit it where the audio select button is

Another member modded his radio door to fit 2 gauges but I think they were quite slim gauges.

IMO if your having one gauge you may as well have 2 or three as just one looks lonely

I had the SOS pillar mount but it caused too much of a blind spot. My dash one I can laser cut the plastic panel for any size gauge
