I just did this also and wanted them up on top of the dash for easy vision while tracking. Used a mustang gauge pod, lightly modified. Pretty pleased with the result

Nice! Did you have to take the dash out to get them to mount up/run wires?

I'm most impressed with how he did the job hovering at a 90 degree angle? A DYI would be awesome!

Nice job. Did you find that it impedes your vision/ distraction at all on the track?

My first track day with this setup is tomorrow, so I'll let you know. I moved it towards me on the dash (which slopes downwards) to improve visibility and went with black gauges to reduce distraction. I believe they will be more at-a-glance then a distraction, but will follow up after some time at lime rock.
