cant really see it in the pic, mine had a carbon gauge holder made by PPS to replace the mfd.


you can get ones from some company that sit on top of mfd but i think it looks pretty untidy.

really your gauges should be in good view so you don't have to take your eyes off the road for long etc..I would say pillar mounted is the best option..
