Default Cleanest looking Boost Gauge?

I'm looking to get a boost gauge this week and was looking for some advice. I saw a pic of a small pillar mounted boost gauge but I have also seen some that install into your steering column. I was wondering if you guys can point me in the right direction of a clean looking boost gauge, preferably a pillar mount.

Could you post pics of your boost gauge if you have one and post the brand/model?

Thanks!

Sorry not a pillar mount, but also a clean spot. It's a $30 ebay one, and it works just fine.
It also changes colors,

before you go putting anything in your a-pillar, make sure you don't have side airbags

That's about what I am looking for but I certainly don't have the time to run through that operation.

Are there any aftermarket options that will come out like that designed for the A4?

I'm pretty sure theres no aftermarket solution for an A-Pillar pod for us B6 owners....just because we have side-curtain airbags.....i'm guessing its technically a "safety hazard" to have anything like that on your A-Pillar....i could be wrong though.

Do you find that the Podi Guage pod restricts your view on any parts of the instrument cluster?
