Where are you guys mounting your gauges for air management? Seen some cool ides in the lower pocket of the 03 consoles.

Thats where mine is. Have had em mounted on the pillar and the steering column - didnt like either. Only other way id mount it is in the overhead console, thats clean.

Not the best pics, but you get the idea. You remove the cubby hole and this thing clips in.

Thanbs for the pic adjusted. However if ya read my first post I said in the lower pocket of the 03 consoles lol. As for the a pillar spot I hate them there looks to import. I'm thinking like where Brandon posted. 2 dual needless up top and the air tank below the ac vent. Anyone know if they make plastic ones for the top? I'd like to have ir as close to factory looking as possible.

The reason I like the pillar spot is because it keeps all 3 gauges in easy view. imo it's Moar rice to have gauges in multiple locations. If you put them overhead hide them behind a tinted piece of plastic. Eddeh did his like that and it was invisible till the lights came on. Much clean imo

That shit is bad ass. Is that something you did or bought like that? Wonder how it'd work with mechanical gauges with leds in them

the blacked out lens? I bought the sheet and cut to fit, put the gauges back there myself. Im pretty sure any gauge would shine thru...as long as the needle has light, you would be able to see it.

Here's how I did mine. I made the bracket out of lexan. Has held up very well considering its held together with epoxy.
I wish I had some better pictures on my phone.

Fuck no! Still like that today... LMFAO!

I needed a good fix for this setup when I put the console in. I like the functionality of it.

I haven't cared too much about the way it looks, guess I should... The whole interior is getting pulled out and wrapped or colored when ever I get started on it.

Can be cool but why didn't you use just a plastic to make it look more factory

Mine are mounted in the Tahoe console. I need to actually fill in the void around the gauge but this is how I bought the truck.
