I've fitted my gauges directly under the radio in the dash, there is enough room to fit three across, but make sure you measure well before cutting any holes

Not sure I would have cut the dash if the PO han'd already hacked into it though.
I put the important ones in plain view, and the not so important below

I have 3 gauges underneath the radio - VDO clock, oil temp and oil pressure (shot taken during the rebuild - it's much neater than that now)
