Lotek Sucks! Any other options where to mount?

Took my A-pillar off and tried to test fit the Lotek and it is terrible. I can't get it to fit right and the piece is flimsy and weak. I have read of others having issues and some cut and heated the plastic to make it fit, but I don't think it is worth it.

I am wanting to mount my boost gauge and knock gauge. I am planning on putting the oil/temp in the console area. What other options are there for mounting a couple gauges?
 
If you happen to have T-tops they make a panel with two gauges that replaces the the center piece between the sunvisors. I think kirban sells them. buickgn.com sells a panel that replaces the black panel on the passenger side of the dash and you can put up to four gauges over there. You may be able to get something to go in the ash tray but I'm not sure. Also you can get a gauge pod that screws to your existing a-pillar trim if you don't mind ruining it.

I agree they do not fit right.
tin snips work real well on cutting the plastic up top to get them to fit
 
I have a hard top, so the T-top holder won't work. I also dont like the idea of trying to cut the Lotek to fit since if I cut it, I can't return it. I really can't tell what is causing the issue with it, so that is another reason I don't want to start cutting.
