Depends really where YOU want it.You can either buy plates pod's ready to take gauge and you put it where you want.Or you get creative and make it fit somewhere else.

Pillar mounted is my favourite

Nomad sell them off the shelf or Mike Rainbird does some nice custom made ones

The plates are about Ł20 ready cut for how many gauges you want.Then just fit and wire up gauges.Job done.

Nomad is the man for these.

Thats nice with an ACT Gauge in there too.

Autometer is the make. They are still 52mm Round Gauges. 3drstretch has Autometer by the looks of it.
