where can I put the boost gauge??

Any ideas? I would like to keep it hidden from other cars, but not so much that I have to take my eyes off the road to watch it. I love gauge pods, but it sort of displays it to everyone.
Post yo pictures!

Replacing the clock seems to be a popular choice.

You could get a gauge cup and mount it on your steering column.

this isn't a very good shot but I have a gauge there as well.  I made the filler peice out of 1/8" lexan, first I cut the paice to size, then using the Dremel, cut out the center, and painted it alluminium, then two way taped it to the back of the dash trim.  I can get a better pic of it in the morning if you want.

Is everything in the interior blue except the carpet and the dash? Looks kinda cool.

You can't see it too well in this pic, but it's in the vent angled at the driver.

Yeah, it is actually a green I guess.  I have the matching carpet, just haven't had the time to swap it in yet, then redie the dash.  I plan to re die everything black.
