I mount mine in the cut out for the ashtray. Mounting them like this eliminates the ashtray, but it was the only place I could find where they'd be visible and I wouldn't have to make any holes in the dash.

One of my 'when I have time' projects is to take an extra ash tray and modify it so the gauges fit inside/attach to it with the wires connected with Weather Pack connectors. If I want to remove the gauges for a show I can remove and unplug them, and then install the 'good' ash tray.

 I probably would not have done away with the ashtray if I did not see this photo of yours. Hard to see in my pics, but this is about the cleanest install I could come up with. I can change it back to "stock" in about 10 minutes,and no holes drilled in my dash!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
