I wish... But the answer as of at least a few weeks back is still no.
In time, I'm sure we'll get some love. Until then, it's just a guessing game as to where to put the gauges.

Are you going to have a shop fab it or literally lay in the fiber yourself?
If the former, let me know what they'd want to do another (assuming we have the same interior) - might get a discount.

I already have my gauge and am just waiting for the pods to get delivered so I can start that project.

Not a bad idea. Wish I had the Alcantara pillars. Would have done the same and just ordered a single yard of Alcantara. Would have been great, but missed that option.

I couldn't, so I just went with a custom dash mount setup.
I think we're all on our own with getting creative for gauge mounting (for now anyway).

Sure! It's nothing special, but it looks clean and works great.

Theta..your install is something I would like to closely replicate (dont see any other mounting options for the gauges)...
How/where did you accomplish routing through the firewall and drilling of the hole...did you have to disassemble the dash panel?

I don't know how large those gauges are but would it be possible to place them under our AC controls where the corvette badge is. If someone could get them housed in there I think they would look great but you would have to look down to read your boost lol.

Yep..considered mounting somewhere in that area but its a safety concern and given how rapidly the data is changing gauge usefulness would be significantly diminished if located out of immediate field of view while driving.
