I've always thought that gauges on the a-pillar was... unrefined? But really, where else is a good place to put extra gauges?
I'll continue showing boost and IAT temps and knock retard on my dash using my DashControl until I see a nice A-pillar pod setup or something. Or a DIY solution that doesn't require hands of Michelangelo Carvaggio to complete.

I'm working on one now as Robert is aware off. Long story short I'm working with Ortiz custom gauges to make me a 2 gauge a pillar. They use the factory OEM pillar that you will have to send them. I sent mine off this week so I should have it back in a week or 2 and will do a dedicated post on it.

But then again, I've got a vert, so I'd never put pillar gauges up anyway.

^^^ 
But the best thing for me for this car is to do the pillar gauge pod. Just will get black face one's and also do the pod to make it like the factory one.
I have all of this stuff on the way to me now.

Gauges up high in VIEW are the best IMO. The only thing to make it happen is the pillar. Yes it's great to have it on a screen down low but when in action/real world.... you are not looking down or wouldn't want to. Again IMO.

^^^ That is the only reason I am going with the pillar. Plus like the other guy side I do like what little are small amount of room that is behind the screen. I hope this box comes by this Friday so I can get a good part of it on the car over the weekend.

^^^ Possibly something where the center speaker grill is like they did for the last generation GTO's.

^^^^ It is just the black plastic cover with 3 pod hole's in it. I will get it covered with something to make it look more like a stock piece.
But I got it from BER in here a vendor great guy. Robert

I wanted the innovative MTX-L, but they don't just sell the gauge. I already had everything else since I have an autocal so I went with the standered innovative gauge and pro sport evo boost gauge.
