So I'm installing my gauges today to get ready for my turbo but I can't decide where to put the temp bracket till I get my CF A Pillars. Here's what we're looking at:

I say if your getting A-Pillar pods in you should put those where they won't cause any visible damage...as in screw holes and such. The Ashtray spot looks the best.

To the side looks too much of a homemade jerry-rig job... I like in the ashtray also.

I'm actually only gonna put one gauge on the a pillar now that I thought at it so this will be permanent. The pro with the ashtray is you can't see the back but it's also pushing out some of the panels and sits at an akward angle where as with the side I gotta make a backing but that's it.

Put them where you can see them EASILY while driving. Frankly, either one of those spots SUCK. My gauges are below my center console vents and even those are too low. A-piller or dash top or what's the point in having gauges?

I'm screwed when it comes to easily seeing lol And I'm installing my turbo this week so I'm just prepping for that.

I missed the "temp" part.

For now, the ashtray location will probably work the best and leave the least remaining footprint when you move them.
