If you have a Trinity I would skip the gauge and use the Trinity to display your AFR. If you don't have a Trinity then a gauge pod on the pillar is a convenient install and easy to read. Exhaust bank does not matter, whichever is easier - most likley the drivers side.

Small kit, you remove the horizontal vents (they just pop out) and replace it with the pod (circle)
Still can't find the link but here is an image of the kit. think it was around 30 bucks

Does that kit block the airflow to that vent? I'd be concerned about a nasty hot and humid day, jumping in, and having the AC blasting on it. Might get some condensation inside the gauge.

I just got mine because I like the flashey lights that go around it. Mine is reading 15 when I mash the gas. Not sure what that means, so I stopped looking at it.

I'm down here in FL and never had any issue with condensation

I made a mount for my Trinity out of a scrap of plexiglass. I turned the arm's knob around so it doesn't hit the A-pillar. I don't have the AFR set-up yet; waiting for a cable.

I like that. It doesn't pop out when you hammer it?

Well there you have it. If it's good enough for Florida, it should be good enough for anywhere.
Rick, I like that idea. Good thinking. I bet if you put another bend in the right spot, it would lock that baby down nice and tight. Good work.

It's not, it's pulled tight with wire from behind. It doesn't move unless I physically move it with my hand. Was temporary when installed 2 years ago ...
How wide is that gauge? and will that work with an intune so I can data log?
