I just put a piece of Velcro on the back and placed in the instrument cluster over the tempurature gauge, although this thread has given me some ideas.

I also had the mount that coors had, and I liked that until it snapped.

Never mind!
Amazon.com: OBD II OBD2 16 Pin Male to Female Diagnostic Extension Cable 150cm: Car Electronics Amazon.com: OBD II OBD2 16 Pin Male to Female Diagnostic Extension Cable 150cm: Car Electronics

Thank god for amazon! Just had to re-word the search. So with this extension cable, do I still have to open the Ultraguage and solder anything?

Please share pictures when you get this done. I just may move mine up there, depending on how it goes for you. On my S model, that panel is wasted.

Originally I had it mounted on the cover of the spare change compartment but I noted that it was semi difficult to see the display while driving. Screen was to far down and I would have to bend over a bit and take my attention completely off the road to look at it - not safe.

I like it much better now and the best part is I did it with virtually no tools! Just bought an adapter cord for it off amazon as some fellow members suggested.
