Question Gauge Placement on 2006???

I was wondering were you guys/gals were placing your gauges and which ones seem to match the factory gauges the best??? Pics would be great! I'm liking the Autometer C2 with a steering column mount.

I have 3 on the A-Pillar and two in the overhead windshield mount. I went with the DiPricol gauges because it was the only company that I found that carried all the gauges I wanted/needed. THe perfectly match the factories and have a great white led glow to them at night. VERY easy on the eyes and easy to read. I would DEFINITELY go with the A-Pillar ones for the vitals because you don't have to take your eyes off the road at all.

I was thinking of adding 2 bullet mounted Isspors to the upper sides of the steering column.

I LOVE the overheads. I have 100psi Boost, 100psi Fuel, and 1600° EGT (Post Turbo) on the A-Pillar and Rail Gauge and Pre Turbo EGT on the overhead.

I have 3 Isspro's on the pillar and will be adding 2 more (they will have to be Diprocal's since they are the only one with a rail pressure gauge) on the steering column.

Do a search on gauges, you'll find lotsa info, including people who've had the above mirror windo mounts fall off.
