Where did you mount your aftermarket AFR gauge?

I am looking for a clean install of the AFR gauge in my 930. Any suggestions or photos of Your clean install?

Not sure what you mean by "clean" but I added mine just below the clock (now boost gauge). It is in line of sight and doesn't obstruct anything else except hvac control levers. It needs one 6mm hole drilled in underside of instrument panel for mounting (not visible later if gauge removed).
The other usual location is in place of the ashtray, but I already have an extra a/c vent there.
I'll post "how to" pics if you want more details.

I removed the radio and installed a flat plate providing a nice location for my Innovate AFR gauge.

Removed ashtray, fabricated plate to hold both a boost gauge and AFR.

My "ashtray install"

Bracket is an autometer piece. I think I bought it from Summit.

Nothing very exciting for mine. I simply bent a small aluminium bracket and attached it to one of the bolts holding my boost adjustment knob. It is a bit far away from the eyes and requires some efforts (and time with eyes away from the road) to read... but it works.

I put mine in the same place but is a digital readout so it is easy to read. I had a custom console started but decided on using a stock console for simplicity and am happy with the results.
Homemade console:


stock console in the building phase still figuring out where to put the gauges:


Not a good pic but installed:

It looks like it is not centered or straight but it is. Must be the superior camera inside my iPhone....

I took out my radio, and made an aluminum plate that fits into the hole. I cut a beveled piece out of some round stock, and the mounted the guage to it.... the guage is pointed to the driver
