I think a lot of us are trying to stay away from the A-pillar area, IMO it just doesn't look good. There are plenty of external items that block vision without adding one internally. A 60mm gauge will obstruct a car in traffic with perspective. I think a great spot to mount a boost gauge is where the fog light and mirror controls are now. They could be relocated to the change cubby in front of the fuse box, or next to it.

 

Where did you get that pod for the steering wheel i wanna get one of those, IMO that looks best.

 

Some kewl example; Autometer A/F ration & Boost meter

Well SzuChenEvo, u can always find a wide variety of Autometer or any other gauges COLOR to ur interior decoration needs *bump* solely not advertising but alternative

Cobalt series

Z-series

Carbon Fibre series

 

sorry for the OT but, Ryan if you don't mind where did you tap your cobalt gauge for lighting? And does your gauge always light up when you switch the ignition on? I have the same gauge and no matter where I tap into it always stays illuminated, so was wondering if this was normal? Thanks Eric

 

 

Here's a pic from the side that shows the carbon fiber cup. At night the boost gauge lights up red and matches the look of the stock dash gauges well.



I got the pod at Evolutionsports.com.

 

I had someone make it for me, he does car audio but can work fiberglass pretty well.

 

I dono I can ask the person who tapped I did not do it. It goes on when I turn the lights on and off when they are off. He does car audio and did it in about 10 min. Also he sodered the stock wire and wrapped it in some plastic stuff as well. He is AWESOME at car audio installs. I will ask him but he is always out of town.

 

Am I the only one?

 

Hammerli-- That looks GREAT!!

Here's mine:

 

Hehe, I put mine up at the top instead. With the window tint, you can't see them hardly from the outside of the car. They've been there for about 2 weeks now. The radar detector is well out of site, too.

 

That looks awesome, where did you find the paint to match the factory color?
