Here are a couple pics of mine. I think the 60mm is just right for the distance from you to the dash. Just me though.

Yeah, the pillar is too close for 60mm IMO. Go for the smaller ones then. I wouldn't pick anything that back-lights blue or white. I had an old autometer boost gauge that back-lit blue on the A-pillar. Nearly blinded me every time I drove at night. Especially making left turns.

Take it for what its worth.
