Default NGK AFX Mounting Location

I did some searching and found a few results from years ago, so I am looking for some new ideas. The NGX AFX display is much larger than I anticipated and I am looking for ideas on how to mount it.

Some C6 guys mount it on the flat part behind the steering wheel, not bad but is it too bright? Some others hide it in the glovebox, I would prefer to see it but maybe this will change.

Where else have you guys mounted the display?

Thanks

I had mine mounted in the ash tray compartment for a while, then I moved it to the glove box.
WTF, you couldn't see it anyway in the ash tray without looking around the shifter when it was in gear.

I wouldn't "mount" it anywhere! I don't use my WB unless I'm tuning and even then I'm using my laptop. IMO, that guage is only good for calibrating.
