Single Gauge pod ideas?

Hey all. I'm wanting to install a single gauge pod for a fuel pressure gauge in my truck.(I installed the ITP RR system awhile back and want to keep an eye on pressure at WOT) There aren't too many options for an 06'. I didn't really want to lose my OS handle. I wanted to put it on my steering column but they don't make one for my year of truck. Do they make a single pod for above the mirror or anywhere else without taking up dash space? thanks

they have a single pod that mounts on the a-pillar and allows you to keep your stock handle

You can also cut a hole in the bezel on either side of the steering column and insert a gauge there (right side is easier). I plan to put EGT in the single pod under handle, fuel pressure on left side under fuel gauge, and boost on right side.

When I had a single gauge I had the pod that mounts the pillar. I got it from diesel manor. It allows the grab handle to stay on the pillar. It's a nice clean install and looks stock.

If you order it from GOS Performance they paint them for you. I think Diesel Manor sells them unpainted, but they also sell painting supplies.
