ive seen alot of people put it in remote locations like that but then is it really even being used then? when ur in boost you shouldnt be looking down and away from the road much... i have mines on my a pillar and i can barley get a quick half second glance at it

5 whites 4psi of vacuum each.

1 psi per blue led

1 white led per each 5 psi interval.

They are the smallest SMD/SMT leds you can get really.

I've seen boost gauges put in glove boxes before. You could also mount the on the center console where the radio would go.
