never used the gauges but i have used the over mirror pods before. i like them on the a pillar much better. theyre kind of hard to see up at the angle especially if your 5'10" like i am. if your super tall it might be easier to see

Had the above mirror mount looked cool but hard to see at a glance and it kept falling down in the summer heat. Now I have 2 on the pillar and 2 on the steering colum. MUCH better IMO

Does anybody else run the 3 gauge top-of-dash pod? I'm just wondering how they like it. I hate the look of A-piller gauges, so that will never happen...
