custom making a steering column gauge mount

HAs onyone tried this? I used to have a 93 Rx-7 and I bought a steering column mount for a boost gauge from Pettit racing.

If you are unfamilar with this concept...it would neatly integrate a single gauge into the top of the steering column. It would be a tight fit, but I am good with fiberglass.

If anyone has tried this before, I'd love to see their pics.

Some company makes a dual gauge mount with each gauge on the outside edges if the top of the steering column. I think that design would block too much of the speedo and tach.

Having a single gauge in the middle would only block the 7000-8000 rpm range and the 0-20 mph range (this is on an '05 dash layout.)

EDIT:

here's a pic of the RX-7 one.


If anyone has any other idea of where to make a custom gauge mount, I'm all ears. BTW, this is in a sedan. A pillar mount is my last option.(even that would have to be custom for the sedan)

this is the other pod I saw. I don't really like the way it looks. The pods don't flow well into the top of the steering column.
