I started with an inexpensive ABS triple gauge pillar mount... 'universal fit' means that it doesn't fit ANYTHING without some modification. ;) I was considering putting gauges in the gaping hole where my radio was stolen from, but decided on the pillar mount. I really did NOT want to pull the dash and mess around with it unless I had to. It would have been 'slick' to chop out the gas guage and water temp, but not worth the time to me. I may still come back and use the water temp gauge for my motor over-temp sensor, but who knows. One odd thing is that my fuel gauge continues to creep toward 'full' even though disconnected....
