hey guys, I got a wideband and a steering column pod for it. But I also got a water temp gauge and I need a place to stick it. Where can I? Also do you use the crossover plug as the location to plug sensor?

You can get A pillar pods for only one gauge. However, I would run just the one gauge in the steering column pod for a bit first. See how you like it. I ran the column pod for a couple years. I didn't like it. It puts the gauge too low IMO. It's a lot easier to see on the pillar. That's where my gauges are now.

SOS gauge pod is the best looking option. There are also some vent gauge pods ive seen on eBay that people are making on their 3d printers as well as the standard column pods.

I used the crossover tube for the temp. probe on my coolant temp gauge. Just need a new coolant crossover plug with a 1/8th npt fitting on top.

I say pillar pod is the best option on these cars. Steering column is hard to see while driving and I hate gauges mounted in the vent area. Might be cool if you really don't need your A/C, but where I live I need all the cold air my vents can produce LOL.
