Just something to toss in the pot - gauges mounted face-up in the
instrument panel cover, rotated such that the high end of the scale
is toward the driver, with an angled mirror above them for
viewing.  Lettering might be odd but the up-is-more convention should
avoid mirror-image confusions.

<mod hat>  This is the Van-a-gon list.  It's for talking about
Van-a-gon things, gauges, people, activities, trips, gauges,
get-togethers, modifications, troubles, triumphs, gauges, woes,
blisses, gauges, camping, driving, traveling, working, playing,
living in, crawling under, gauges, leaning over, using, abusing,
being used and abused by, loving them, hating them, collecting them,
keeping them bone stock and worth millions one day, driving them to
death and the many uses of 90-mile-an-hour tape, gauges, anything but
being indifferent to them.  And being ugly to one another.  Did I
mention gauges? ;-) </mod hat>

Yours,
David
