Gauges all done. I made a mounting bracket out of 3/4 inch steel angle iron to hold them right under th ed gauge cluster, attached to the same brackets that attach the cobalt gauge cluster. (Lower ones). See picture.

That looks really clean. Matches the stock gauges really well.

Thank you. M y first thought was to mount them near the ignition switch, but there is not enough room, and the steering wheel blocks the view.

Just as a side note, here is a picture of where I mounted the Ambient light sensor. I built a little bracket off of the above mentioned aftermarket gauge cluster. It should have a clear view of the sky, lol.

After looking at the picture, I am going to paint the bracket satin black, to match the gauges.
