Default gauges.

Hi all. Am i the only person in the world with a pre facelift classic who wants to fit x5 60mm defi gauges in?
I dont want pillar mounts and i dont have the top cubby hole, ive looked everywhere i can think to find something decent but to no avail. the radio opening and the centre vents are the obvious choice but the only din holders are all 52mm.
Any ideas would be welcome.
Regards Ed

I know the A pillar is a blind spot but it just seems so much worse on the classics so can understand why you wouldn't want them there.

The other thing I can think of is use the stands that most gauges come with and mount them on the dash. You could use 52mm din holder depending on the gauges so have them sticking out if the back bit is smaller or make the holes bigger so they fit using a cutting tool.
