FWIW, there is room inside the lower dash to mount up to two 52mm diameter
gauges in the left side driver's knee kick panel where the carbon fiber/wood
trim piece is located.  Requires removal of the trim piece, cutting an
appropriate 2-1/4" hole or holes in the dash & trim piece to take the gauges
and some careful surgery to put the parts back together ~ but it can be
done.  The gauge is pretty much out of sight to all but the driver in this
location.  Don't recommend it for a boost gauge location, but its not a bad
location for occasional reference information such as oil temperature etc.
