Where IS The Stock Location? In The Dash? I Was Going To Mount It On The Stearing Colum But with The 5" Face It Is To Big To Fit And I Was Just Wondering Where Other C3 Owners Put Them!

The guy who build it is already a member, he goes by the name of bowtie racing. He sold the car some time ago and now he's building a pro touring 63.
