I hate the pillar gauges because people can see what you are up to.

Does anyone make a cluster that replaces a couple of the AC Vents that I can stuff 3 gauges into?

I am figuring I need a pyro, fuel, and boost.

Does that sound about right?

I thought about doing this and a digital gauge. http://www.cubbycam.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=16_17&products_id=7

That is a cool mount and a great use of space that is not often used. Maybe combined with the overhead mount, Blackhatch will be able to accomodate the three gauges he mentioned.

Here is the overhead mount I installed in my wife's 2500 - mainly to help remind her to let the EGTs come down before turning off the truck.

I'm sure there are better gauges than these to stick in there. http://www.cubbycam.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=8

Perfect...

Just what I was looking for. What would the auxiliary switches be for normally?

I have the overhead mount and i used one of the auxiliary swithces for the lights on the gauges and i bought mine at www.xtremediesel.com. I shopped around i found them the cheapest for the gauge pod and gauges too.
