Requesting pictures of individual gauge pods

I'm looking for pictures of individual gauge pods to see how people hid the wires. I want to put the gauges close to the wheel because I have the clock pod but with a radar detector theres just too much crap over there. I also dont want to have wires running everywhere....just looks taky to me

Matt I was joking cause mine are "tacky"
When I installed the HKS boost gauge I resorted to drilling a hole in the dash to run the power lines and boost hose.

and because of my lack of ability to be happy with stuff, I know I'll be moving the pods around more, so I want to avoid drilling...but I know there have to be some creative ways to hide wires....I hope

take out the driver side vent to the left of the steering wheel and put a gauge in there

I know what you mean....that center pod....would drive me nuts. Takes my eyes away from the road.

I've always had my boost gauge close to the outer drivers side. (Far left in the WRX, far right on the JDM Nissans)

its also just too congested in that area. I might borrow see if I can borrow suz's a-pillar pod and see how I like that. otherwise I'll mount them on top of the dash right above the steering wheel, but I can only fit one more on there I think
