Idash mount options

Just ordered a single Banks iDash SuperGauge and am now looking for mounting options. It’s a 52mm gauge, so what is everyone using to mount theirs? Thanks for any help!

I made my own mount, out of the factory vent.

Thanks, no write up, but I can send you more pictures. Just pm me your email address. My upper is from Janetty as well, but I panited it gray.

How is the top vent mount? Does it sit tight? I read it doesn’t snap in securely

Banks windshield suction cup mount works well and it fits in the space nicely.

I agree. That was my original mounting option.

I read this as well Block…..how does the top one fit Swiss? I may just stick to that one instead of taking out the vent at the bottom.
