Gauge Mounting Solutions? Looking for ideas, 3rd gauge

I really really LOVE the clean look of the Lotek A-pillar 2 gauge pod:


I also really like the gauges I have now, the silver face matches the factory gauges quite well.

Although...I'll soon be adding a 3rd A/F gauge and I don't want to mess up the clean look.

I have a few options on what I can do.

1) Smitty gave me a gauge cup that I could attach to the A-pillar at the top screw. This would keep the gauge near the A-pillar (which I think I prefer) but it wouldn't look very clean.

2) I could use this steering collumn mount from Lotek(I like this)

3) I could sell my current gauges, replace the two current gagues (boost and fuel psi) with one of those digital 2-in-1 boost/fuel pressure gauges that you can get from www.kingmotorsports.com then install the A/F gauge in the leftover A-pillar pod. The downside to this is the gauges won't match, but it is the cleanest install.

4) ????


Let me know what you all think... i'm open to all suggestions.

Do they make an electronic meter that could record the A/F ratios for monitoring later or do you want to always have full view of the ratios? Does the VAFC have that capability? If you only want to check occasionally, then couldn't you put it in the sunglass tray in the ceiling?

I believe it is possible to connect the datalogging output wire from the AEM UEGO gauge to any 0-5v input on the e-manage to allow for later analysis.

I would like the gauge to be easily viewable at all times.
