Guru Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Has anyone managed to put their boost gauge in the left hand air vent i.e. above the heater controls? Any tips if yes as I want to do it but don't know if its possible nor if there is a quick and easy way...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye Brother Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 There's some pictures of my boost gauge fitted in that location on this thread. Can't offer any tips on installation, though, as Matt H fitted mine for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 IVe mounted mine in the clock location as mine is a 52mm gauge....you need to get the dash off completely and take the vent out, then feed in from the front and position into place!!! There is grommit near the brake fluid reservoir you need to feed the vacum hose through....it should apear near the drivers foot well when you feed it through the firewall!! now comes the tricky part, fixing this to the back of the gauge!! i used a wire to hook mine up behind my radio etc and connected it you may find an easier way. If you have an aftermarket BOV you can T into the BOV actuator pipe and fit the vacum hose here!! connect the lighting wires to your ashtray light....that wat you can control it on your dimmer switch, this is what I did, but totally upto you? hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveburwash Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Very easily done, take the vent out and cut out the inner bits. The 60mm gauge will fit straight in and swivel like the old vent:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
