Do your pillar mounted gauges create a blind spot??

I'm wanting to add boost, egt and fuel pressure gauges to my truck but all the pillar gauge mounts I've seen seem like they would create a blind spot. Now granted I've never seen one installed just pictures.

I do like the concept of the gauges being mounted in the pillar, as I don't like the idea of a bunch of gauges pods screwed to the top or bottom of my dash.

(1) I was just wanting the opinion of those that have the pillar gauge mounts do they seem like they create a blind spot?
(2) If not who makes the pillar mount your using?
