    Herpa derp, I think the flat will look good against the glossy paint.

    Installed Ultra Gauge, Eric had talked me into a scan gauge, but I had already committed to the GB. So I'll give it a shot, and if I don't like it, his dog likes to use them as chew toys.

    Need to figure out a more permanent home for it.

    Definitely let us know what you end up doing, can't figure out an alternate mounting location.

    And nice build by the way!

    Ok, as requested. My UltraGauge set up

    First, I found this aluminum bracket at Autozone. It's made for mounting GPS devices.
    25A9D057-7A98-4DCB-BEE5-DE8924074CDE-159_a90e4f17e44f1a4c0680efbf427919a325accdb2.jpg

    Then I bent it. The wrong way... But it'll do. I used 3M wall mounting snap Velcro shiz I found at Wallyworld. Pretty dang sturdy.

    Now, I'm not to happy with the wire. I will need to find a way to route it behind and through the dash. But, this will do for now.

    That looks good. I was thinking about mounting mine to the handle some how. You can pull the instrument bezel off and route the wire behind that easy. Just a few screws and pops right out.
