I've mounted two gauges in the plastic bit that covers up the two vents
running to the floor under the radio.  I have Oil Temp and Volts.  I will be
switching to Oil Pressure and Volts in the near future as the coolant gauge
is a good measure of how hot things are!

Hi all;

I picked up a very nice set of 2" (or so) gauges from the picknpull.
They're out of an Audi 4000.  I am thinking about putting them in the
Vanagon but I don't have a good place to put them.  I was wondering if
anyone has mounted a set of three 2" guages in their vanagon and if so
where did you put them??  You can buy different gauge housings from
aftermarket places but it's the location that's got me!

Anyone done this?  The guages are a basic set of three:  Voltage, Oil
Pressure, and Oil Temperature.

Thanks;

Damian
