K iv sat my boost gauge bloody everywhere and it look naff so im making a custom holder to sit right in the corner.. right there where the arrows pointing lol

The gauge will sit back a bit more but the angles perfect for driving as its in perfecto view :D

Due to it being such a weird shape, best way was to make an exact mould of the s:rolleyes:
Came out like this..

its not a bad place for a guage but as i found myself glancing at my boost guage a fair bit i have got a stearing coloum top mount one but this is a good place for another guage......egt or oil temp?

I test fitted this some time back, but never went with it.

Its for a scoob but the fit isnt that bad.

I know that there was one of those available a while ago. Miguel@Newera has one on his car. That sits between the dash and apillar.. looks very good and is not in the way.. But is discontinued I think. :(

Few updated pics, the pod sits perfect in the gap, just needs a final sand down, final coulour and a few coats of clear.. the way it sits in mean the wires wont be seen at all.. very kewl :mmmm
