If you have some of your gauges mounted on your steering column, could you post up a couple pics of them? I really don't want to cut any holes in my 600 for any, and I want to keep my radio as well. I had thought about taking it out and mounting them there but, I like my radio :p

Thanks!

Tape it on.

That's what the member "Tim" has done. I remember seeing a pic somewhere of a boost gauge mounted in a gauge cup which was mounted on the column. Now I can't find it.

IDK, I may just end up mounting them on the dash, but I do want a sleeper effect so...Anyone have any pics?

I believe that the column mounted pod was in a P body. They use the same column cover taht the rams do, so that is why that is available.

This was an actual gauge cup that you can buy from Summit to mount the gauge in, the one I saw a pic of. That would be cool to have something like this though. I'll do some searching around and see if I can find it. I wish I was good with fiberglass :(

Thanks Chuck! Those help out alot. I see you used the "cups" for mounting them. I'll have to see how much area my column has for them.

The steering column pod is for a diesel truck and happen to fit the spirit and shadow steering columns. I forget but think some people tried them on daytona columns and it wouldn't work.

either way it won't work without modifying it to your column as all the ones that it fit are 90 and up.
