On my truck I cut up a gauge pod and fiberglassed it on the pillar. I only did 1 though but if you can fiberglass you can make a triple if you want. It's not ricey at all, mine was necessary since its a water temp gauge and I'm running electric fans so don't start bashing.

Boost :)
I would strongly suggest an android device of some sort with the torque app for a few reasons.
1. The EB has widebands stock and the app monitors them and you can very easily see both banks A/F ratios.
2. You can set whatever you want to view on it. I monitor boost, widebands, air intake temp and water temp. Much more versatile and very accurate with its refresh rates as well.
And pillar pods are not just for Hondas. My 500hp Supra and countless others ive built over the years would disagree with the ricer Honda comments.

Boost :)
They don't have to be digital at least to view them anyway. You can make them whatever style, shape, color, etc you want. When you say digital i think of displaying a number as opposed to a gauge with a dial on it. You can make this do either.

I had a Scan gauge II on my truck when it was original. For reading instantaneous mileage and tranny temps and such. After the SC, I tore up a harley pod and re-did it for a boost and fuel pressure gauge. Wouldn't live without it. If I had a eco-boost I would definitely get the boost installed and maybe something to read the head temps....scan gauge...etc....
Pillar pods always seemed like an obstruction to vision to me....Mine is on the dash.
