Where to put gauges?

Hi, after taking advice off here, I have ordered a three way switch and some wire and an LED battery meter, easy to install on the heater cover as suggested. However, for my new oil temp meter and possibly tachometer... well where would they go? Anybody got any pictures of how they put theres in?

Help would be appreciated! Helga

Are they the 52mm ones?

If so get a pod for them

Most people place them on top of the dash
