I'm after some gauges for my project track car.

I was wanting AFR, oil press, oil temp, water temp, and have been thinking where to fit them.

I was thinking of mounting them in the curved plastic bit, above the glovebox?

But i would want to be able to view them, so would need some wedge's to angle them around to face me.

Has anyone seen this done, or similar?

i dont want A pillar pods, don't like the look of them, any other ideas?

ive seen them mounted above the glovebox before......looks quite good.
you need 1 hell of an angle to see them from the drivers seat tho.

i like the ones that mount either side of the speedo clocks.

Think i'm going to have a crack at the above, does the said panel come out, or is it moulded into the dash?

Gauges, does it matter who makes them?

these Race X ones are 30 quid on ebay...



I'm after oil pressure, oil temp, AFR, and possibly a water temp.

Will these gauges be ok for what i need?

any info would be cool, going to try & mount them on an angle so i can see them, going to either put them in the panel above glove box (see pic below, the rounded thing),



or have something like this on top of the dash?



I'm pretty sure the above gauges all have readouts in the centre of the gauge, so they should be visible even on extrame angles pointing to driver.
