On my 82 I put the Oil Temp and Pressure on a twin pod mounted to the
right and below the steering column.  I mounted the bracket to the
foam-dash piece betweeen the heat duct and the stering column.  I
drilled one hole from below and used th ehole that the dash piece mounts
with as my second attachement point.  I only added one whole that is not
very visible. I ran the wires underneath the van through where the
headlights connect and into the dash.

At the same elevation but to the left of the steering, I mounted my
Voltmeter in the same fashion.  I do have to look down to see my gauges
but it was really easy to do and they are out of the way of sun and heat
also.   At night the glow of the gauges does not reflect on the
windshield at this location.  If anyone wants more info they can contact
me direct.  I may have a photo here somewhere.
