The UPR tack mount (even if it is a rip off from someone on here) is a good design. It fits behind the radio bezel so if you do remove it there are no holes.

You may be able to find the orig. maker on here, but if not go to UPR. I have one and it is preaty nice. It has some side to side movement but out of the way for the pillar guages I have now. I liked it mounted slightly better for the side to side movement but am happy.

The thing I like about the mount is if you remove it you dont see any holes as they are behind the center bezel and coverd up.

IIRC its like one screw and uses one of the existing holes/screws to mount

Actually, the pic is from a program a local shop put on with their new mustang dyno. They called it the "dyno drags" and over winter they loaded up the dyno weighted the cars (if you wished or they used production wieghts for cars) and ran a tree and all with you doing a 1/4 pass. Great thing for the winter and get a leg up on tuning.
