Looking for ideas on how to mount UltraGuage

Thinking about getting an Ultra Gauge for my 2017 DCLB TRD Off-Road. Looking for ideas how to mount it where it doesn’t look out of place. Haven’t really found a good place yet that doesn’t block the radio, vents etc. Not really interested in a TPAM. Wish they made a bracket that was vehicle specific, looking for ideas or suggestions. Thank you!

 

On the windshield?

 

This isn’t super helpful since I’m a second gen, but here’s where I have mine. Very visible and doesn’t block my view.

 

Would rather keep it off the windshield, already have a radar detector mounted there.

 

Whaaat. Did you just say radar detector in your Tacoma???? You must have a Magnuson installed

 

Here is how I mounted mine.

 

Don't have either, been debating both. Left side above vent is seemingly the best for the ultra guage. On top of the steering column just in front of the cluster is a good spot for the scan guage.

 

Having had both, I prefer the UG. Easier to read display and you can set audible alarms if a certain threshold is met, i.e. mine alarms of my coolant gets above 220°.

You could use the taco garage dmm mount. I currently use it for 2 phones, but it gives you flexibility for all kinds of accessories and keeps them out of the way of vents, etc. Those articulating arms let you raise it up pretty high if you prefer that. Here's a pic of my interior. Not a close up shot but you get the idea.

 

I'd vote for the DMM as well.

 

What did you end up doing?

What mount is that you are using with the ultragauge?

 

I used this mount.

Thanks! I'm assuming you haven't had any issues with it and it holds well bouncing around?

 

Haven't gotten around to ordering the Ultragauge yet since I haven't found a clean & sturdy way to mount it yet.

 

Since that's a magnetic mount, is the back of the Ultraguage metal or did you have to come up with something to make it work?

 

it comes with a magnet you can stick to the back of the Ultragauge.

 

What’s everyone’s experience with the Ultragauge? Worth it, likes & dislikes?

 

I too am considering the ultraguage. @EatSleepTacos how do u like it? Trans temp is available right?

 

I love it. I used to have a scangauge and switched to an UG because the display is easier to read and you can set audible alarms at whatever parameter you want. That was
the big seller for me. I believe the UG MX can do trans temp. I don't know because I'm a manual tranny.
