    Hello,
    I've followed Tacoma World since I purchased my first Tacoma back in February of this year (2013). I've gotten so many good tips and ideas I figured it was time that I contributed something back to the community.

    I wanted to post some pics of my Ultra Gauge mount. With just a few inexpensive items from the local hardware store (less than $10.00 in parts) I was able to throw together a pretty nice little mount for my Ultra Gauge. I thought I'd post some pics here in case anyone else may be attempting the same install.
    1. Here are the basic parts. #1 conduit hanger, 1/4" short machine screws and nuts, L-bracket, washers and lock washers.securedownload.jpg
    2. Here are the parts assembled into the bracket and coated with some black plasti-dip. (one quick note: the machine screw behind the Ultra Gauge mount was a bit too tall...so I needed to file it down just a bit to clear).securedownload-2.jpgsecuredownload-3.jpg
    3. Here are some pics of the completed mount with the Ultra Gauge installed.securedownload-4.jpgsecuredownload-5.jpg

    Looks great! How'd you run the wire?

    Thanks!
    I removed the plastic cover on the driver's side A pillar (2 bolts that hold the "oh-$hit" handle in place) and ran the cable up that passageway. Then, I just used a small screwdriver to tuck the wire under the front edge of the headliner all the way across to the rear view mirror.
