Where can I mount a 60mm gauge......
Seeing as I lost my rag with my R&B A pillar mount and smashed it with a hammer........
Thought I might look at mounting it elsewhere?
Idea's?

I sold my 60mm Defi as I've bought a Apexi 2.5 bar gauge, I just couldnt get the defi out of the mount....................
Long and short of it................Ripped the a pillar out of the car, grabbed a monkey wrench and smashed the bejesus out of it!
Then proudly walked off with the defi in hand!

you could build a pod to go on the left hand corner of the dash and either blend it in and flock the whole dash or if you can do it neat enough do just that area like a banana pob flock it and bolt in in from underneath.

Got any pics Rich? Being honest It needs to be up to the R&B quality, otherwise it'll be a no-no!
Dan, do you me at the side of the instrument cluster? on the outside of the dash?
