    I am attempting to determine a temporary installation of the scangauge, that will not leave a mark etc., on the dash. I thought I had read where one member attached the scangauge to a piece of wood, that he then slid into the cd slot (not too far of course).

    has anyone heard of that, or have other options?

    Hi Chris. I don't have a scangauge, but I saw a picture and thought the gauge was about as tall as the opening under the radio. Wires would hang out, unless you drilled a hole in the back of the pocket, but it should press-fit there.

    or use the velcro that comes with it! No marks on the car that way and velcros DOES come off clean.
