Where Have You Mounted Yours?

Quick one guys.
Trying to figure out the best place in the car, to mount my ebc (greddy profec 2).
I've seen people widen the hi lo boost slot in the dash and mount them there, but would rather my dash remain oem as possible.
Can you share some pics of how/where you have mounted your ebc's?

Thanks

Given me some ideas here. Thanks.
@glanzadude I have my boost guage in that position or I definitely would have put it there.
I'm thinking maybe below the ash tray, in a vent as SKINY has done or somewhere else in the centre console.

One's on top of the centre console:

and the other is installed just below the ashtray:

The Blitz controller in my automatic is fitted in place of the ashtray using a Blitz DIN panel specifically designed for the job, makes it very neat indeed:

Thanks for this Jay.
On the second pic, with the livesports sticker, did you have to dremel out any of the back of that tray to mount the unit there?

Thought so.
I'm going to try and make up a mounting bracket if I can to put it there. Failing that, time to get creative with the sticky pads lol.

Tidy looking that Jay
Who looks down where they are boosting on tho :D
I'm putting my Profec beside the guage in the Dina, I've managed to live with a bit off cable tidy on show
Man you do make a valid point.
I have my aem wideband in the top centre of the dash and my boost guage on the right at the bottom of the drivers side pillar.
So kinda stuck where else to put the ebc asside from the centre console.

The way I look at it is the controller is there to control your boost. Once it's set it can sit anywhere.

The boost gauge should ideally be in your line of sight for monitoring purposes.

Good point to be honest.
I 've removed my centre console, so going to have a play this evening and see what I can come up with.

Something I never realised before, it looks like there may have something mounted underneath the ash try previous, as part of it has been cut out.

I've actually a Blitz panel like this set aside for my auto, just because it's hilarious to put them there.

TBF I'd keep boost, EGT and coolant temps where I can see them, the rest can sit wherever looks cool :D

to be honest...this is something i'd use if i had my way, as i prefer not to see any gauges at all in my car. I like the sleep/stock look.
however, some of them are important to view as Jay said---i have my boost gauge/controller and AFR displayed on the pillar for informational purposes only.

I don't smoke, so repurposed the bottom tray for guages.

Similar story in my MX5 turbo, but valid point, I never look at it when I'm driving. It's mainly to aid with diagnostics.
