Default c5 gauge pod options

Hey guys i'm looking to load my car with gauges to keep an eye on everything. Do they only offer a 3 gauge pillar for these cars or do they have any other vehicle specific mounting options? Like i know my duramax used to have a mount that goes where you cubby hole is by the dome lights

The only two guages I can think of that we don't already have are vacuum and perhaps a wideband. What other gauge(s) are you thinking about?

GPS coordinates? Altitude? Compass bearing?

A/f, fuel psi, vac/psi, fluid temp(not for oil/coolant) egt, I can see the need for more than 3 pods in a non fast and furious like way.

You can crudely stick a gauge behind the ashtray door without too much hassle. You can also hide it easily that way. Not the best looking method, but it works.

I run boost and fuel pressure on my supercharged '01. The fuel pressure isn't really necessary, just a kind of "all's well" gauge more than anything. I would've considered an A/F gauge, but I didn't want anything too distracting.

I run my nitrous switches behind my ash tray cover. And I have a cammed heads and all that. I have a dual pillar set up with no2 pressure an fuel pressure. I'd like to add a wideband anf vacuum gauge. Might help diagnosing future problems. I guess I can scrap the vacuum gauge and run a triple pillar gauge pod

This is a 7 year old thread. They have gone out of business, well, at least for Corvettes.
