Best .52 mod ever better look...

I'm not sure where a better place for it would be. The gauge I want front and center on my instrument cluster is the tach. Fortunately it's that way from the factory. When I had my RX-7, I mounted the boost gauge to the dashboard, on the right side of the instrument binnacle - but there is no room for a gauge there in a Boxster.

Not sure why Jim is being so insulting - bad day? There are things people on this board have done to their cars that I would consider to be pretty ricey but ... to each their own. If having the gauge there suits your needs, more power to you. You can always move it later!

We need a HUD option.

Toatally agree on a Heads Up Display projected on the lower windshield. A digital speedo and digital tach. Of course this all goes down the tubes when you are dialing your cellphone while setting up for a corner.

although i dont know the exact size of the gauge, how about placing it here if it will phisically fit? or is there somethign in there behind?

Nope, imagine the 996 cluster with 5 gauges, and cover up the side 2. Thats what we have. Ive taken apart everything for those LEDs so I know theres no room. Modern cars are too modular and fancy to modify easily. Our gauges are split level and extremely tight in there so we cant do anything. The BEST option is to put the gauges in the middle dash where the climate control is (for me). Its where the cup holders go. You could move your gauge(s) there easy enough but youd have to buy something to relocate the climate control. I think a trim ring or a mounting something.

looked like a good location at least
