40th anniversery gauge pod?

hey every one i would love to get a boost gauge for my 2005 MCS. I have the crono package so that limits me to what i can do. i know on the 40th anniversary cars they have a two gauge pod that sits in the small cubby hole beneath the radio, and air controls. the goal is to some how get the gauges some where in the car, any one know how i can accomplish this goal?(id like to have two boos gauges because im going to be getting the turbo kompressor from webb motorsports some time this year). does some one make a pillar pod or any other ideas?

You can buy an 'empty' gauge pod that mounts in the console and add your own gauges. Likewise, you can find gauge pods meant for Nav-equipped cars to mount a pair of gauges on either side of the tach-speedo.

Outmotoring.com also sells the gauge panel by itself or with the OEM Aux Gauge set (oil temp and volts).
