Post by: grinder on April 13, 2005, 10:33:33 AM
Im in the process of making a custom gauge holder that will slot in above the radio

it will hold 3 gauges

i will take pics as i go along and post them on here

i know you can buy these from the states for about $60 but thats not the point - mine is free :)

the gauges will be

1 - boost
2 - A/F gauge
3 - Not sure - depends if GMAN cracks and sells me a water temp gauge

2 for defo - but will do a 3 gauge holder

its just looking a bit naff at this moment intime ( althought the better half said it looked OK ! )

pics tomorrow ( if the pen drive likes me ! )
