I had my boost guage mounted via velcro to the top of my steering column. However, the heat or something is making the guage pod not stick to the velcro anymore. What is everyone using to mount the guage to the steering column? Is 3M double sided tape enough? Do I really need to drill into the column? Thanks for any input

 

 

i did search. people just have pics of their installs, not how they did it.

 

ive seen people use 3m double sided tape , perferably i'd get the cf gauge pod..

 

Used 1/4" screws. No problems falling off

 

i used 3m tape with carbon fiber pod - without metal holder just glued into column holds fine no probleem ( its because i dont wanna drill holes for screws)

 

Mine looks just like the picture.. used the 1/4" screws that the pod came with.. Trust me, this particular part is cheap enough to replace.. go to Mitsu and pick up a spare so you have a clean original one, then drill the sucker..

 

That's what I wanted to hear. I don't want the c/f one because it blocks the tach. Just personal prefernce for me. I was afraid to drill because I thought the steering column was going to be expensive. But if it is easy to replace and cheap, then I'll just do it, because I really like that spot.

 

OMG!!!!!



this is the best thing i've seen yet. maybe now we can set up a link with that image so people can click on it and do a search.

 

Here ya go...




Oh yeah I tried 3m tape but ened up using some 1/4 screws also. Too much torque for 3m or velcro to work

 

I used plastic velcro.. I called EZPass and they sent me over a bunch of them. I used them for the defi controller which i mounted in the glove box and also I used them for the Guage type Uego which was mounted on the column.. holds really good and doesn't wabble like the cloth type velcro's.

 

just drill it, for n e reason u can go get a new peice of plastic for like $10

 

exactly.. why cant people think like you

Thats what I did
