Defi Red/Red Installed

I just completed the first step of the install of my new gauges.

The pictures are of the following:

1) Craighardy's/Gruppe-S gauge panel
2) Radio Relocation Kit
3) Defi red/red Boost, Oil Pressure and EGT


I purchased everything from Gruppe-S if anyone is interested. They had the best prices and have fantastic CS!

Please excuse the blurry picture with the lights on -- it is damn hard to get a good pic of this with my camera!

Looks sick man! I got my red on red Defi BF boost gauge for $240 from Ravspec, but I think they cut me a deal. Great customer service too. Had some problems with shipping but they took care of it immediately at no extra cost to me and no headaches along the way. Gruppe-S has great package deals though. I really love those gauges- can't wait to get mine installed. I will take some pictures of the gauge when I get it (I'm going to mount it in the RMR carbon fiber gauge cup). Car looks clean as hell, bro

Thanks for the kind words guys. I have been really impressed with the quality of the Defi gauges -- really nice.
It is interesting how bright my picture makes the red look on the gauge face. It is actually much crisper and more subdued and although not a perfect match with the stock instruments it still looks great!

BF are only available in 60mm.

I have no idea on the flip out. Your guess is as good as mine.

I put the Control Unit in the glove box. My logic is that I will only want to access it occasionally, but when I do I want it easy -- I achieved both with this location.

I have attached a couple more pics which are a little better as well as some of the control unit. Please excuse the wires -- I have not finished cleaning everything up yet.
