VDO makes a "mounting cup" which is a surface mounted guage holder and bracket. I put one on the right side of the instrument cluster on the dash and angled it towards me. Very nice looking, easy to install, and you can actually fit two or three of them there, one in front of the other, and have perfect visibility because the dash is sloped downward. The main drawback is cost, they are $48.86 from the Bus Boys, but can be removed if you sell the vehicle (use double sided tape to attach). See www.bus-boys.com/bbvdo.htm and scroll until you find them. -- Stuart MacMillan Manager, Case Program 800-909-8244 ext. 8208 Fax: 206-269-6360 Getting your share of the Net yet? http://cobaltgroup.com http://UsedEquipNet.com |
