I have a 91 coupe, i got some 60mm gauges and wanted to check some of the different ways you guys mounted your gauges! if anyone has the RunRacing gauge mounts for the console...how good is it??

thanks

Yeah, I'm running out of places to put gauges...
I have the dual A-pillar mounts, I have an intercooler-temp/voltage meeter mounted right under my tach on the steering column, as I see it, I have a few options left:

1) Get the "mickey mouse" ears and pick up two extra spots to mount gauges. Ugly as all hell if you ask me, no thanks....

2) Tear apart your radio/climate control decks and start mounting gauges in there. Not very convenient to look at, if you ask me. Also, I like the stock look of my radio and climate controls.

3) Mount a gauge right above the driver's side door vent. This gauge would sit just below and to the left of the A-pillar gauges, and it's not a bad spot to look at if you need something semi-important like EGT or whatnot.

So... all together, that's 2 A-pillar gauges, plus 1 under the tach, 1 on the door, and then 2 with the mickey-mouse add-ons(those are decently expensive I think) plus maybe three in your radio console if you want so that's a grand total of (drum roll please........)

NINE gauges! Lol, that's A LOT. If you have THAT many gauges, you might want to consider buying stock in Autometer, HKS, or whoever you're buying all these gauges from.

Hope this helps!

Where and how much??? that would be perfect...and if too much (which is usually the case for Jspec stuff) does any one make copies??

Umm, I have no idea where and/or how much. Pic says "Borders Racing" so that might be a good place to start. =P I think that's a japanese company, so you might wanna grab someone who speaks Nihongo. Keep in mind, if you use these, I think the left "ear" will obstruct A-Pillar gauges. The double pod Node was talking about would be the alternative to solve that problem. It's basically two gauges on the right instead of one on each side. Good luck with your search, and if you find anything, post your results, so other's can see when they search this thread!
