Third Hole?

Looking for a little advice here. I got the Autometer triple gauge pod for the dash, but I only got Autometer boost and oil pressure gauges. I was wondering if you guys had any ideas for what to put in the third hole? All suggestions will be considered. Please give me some practical, creative, or just plain retarded ideas. I will pick one of the ideas and post the finished picture. Here's what it looks like now.

P.S. - I don't want an EGT gauge, so please don't suggest that.

Why don't you want an egt gauge? That's one of the best gauges to keep track of the vitals on your subie.

EGT is vital for a turbo engine, do you know what happens to aluminum @ 1150 degrees?

I understand that EGT is important, but I trust Cobb's conservative tuning. Also, won't my oil pressure and engine temp start soaring if I have serious problems? I just think that there are other effective ways to monitor the engine besides EGT. Furthermore, doesn't the Autometer probe have a reputation for burning up?
I think the corndog holster is still #1. I love corndogs.
