Default WB Gauge Mounting Opinions/Options

I have decided to move my WB from the pillar to the steering column. I am trying to decide where to mount it. So please tell me your opinions.

Left side (I like it here, but it kinda covers the tranny temp gauge)


Center


Right side

I would say left side because i don't really watch my trans temp gauge unless i'm towing or stuck in traffic and have nothing better to do than watch it creep up

If I had to choose from those options I would say left, but really I would choose none of the above. I think I would get sick of the WB flashing in my face all the time. Specially at night.

I kinda agree with you but since I am new to tuning and I have screwed up a few times, I like seeing what is going on. Oh and the gauge dims and night so it is not that bad at all. Well I installed it on the left side. Here is a pic.

Maybe some day, but I am saving for gears and TruTrac, not to mention a Ring.... This was a $14 fix...
