Pig Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Ok guys i have my boost gauge in my clock and love it there because its subtle! I dont want to loose my vent or have a pillar pod...where can i put my AFR gauge? Please post pics or ideas if you have any suggestions! Thanks i really appreciate any (constructive) input! Terry if your reading this, you have a gauge on the right of the steering wheel, could mine go there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 God ur fussy! do you have a single or double din radio? Could it go in the gap if you've got a single? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted January 31, 2006 Author Share Posted January 31, 2006 Single but bluetooth and race logic digi adjuster fills that gap lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltraFlynn Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I've got my boost gauge down on the right hand side of the dash. Just above where you put the key in the ignition. It's an awful place. The only way to see what boost you're getting is to look down (and to tilt your head over to the right) and that's not ideal because you should really be looking at the road. My advice is not to put it there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supragold Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 What about losing your top glove box and placing dials there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRALOOPY Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 got a pic of the afr gauge?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted January 31, 2006 Author Share Posted January 31, 2006 Its the AEM one! You know the one, cant be arsed looking for pics! Definate no to the glove box as its an air bag for me! Sound like a no to by the keys! And not sure about the behind the steering wheel one, anyone got any pics of that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 why don't you want a pillar pod one? Def the most visible place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bromy Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 You may have seen mine before, i know you said you did not want to put it in the vent but i dont know where else your gonna put it, you really need to keep it some where near the line of vision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted January 31, 2006 Author Share Posted January 31, 2006 Cause IMO the plastic they come in generally looks shit and doesnt fit properly! Edit: Where did you get the chrome surrounds? that looks really nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supragold Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Nice touch with them surrounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 What about actually IN the bottom glove box?? Saw someone with that somewhere and it was positioned so when the door was open it was in view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Cause IMO the plastic they come in generally looks shit and doesnt fit properly! Edit: Where did you get the chrome surrounds? that looks really nice! Mine is a good fit, made of fibreglass and is an exact copy of the original trim (pattern wise) and holds 2 gauges. http://www.internetwork.org.uk/defi1.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 How about getting fancy with fibreglass and having it in the centre of the steering wheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letmeshowyou Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 i could put my boost gauge up there and get my clock back. sad i know but i miss it sSSOOOOOOO much! Not that sad tho - every time I've sacrificed a clock in a car for a guage it's irritated me! That's why my boost guage is in the middle air vent in mine. Never understood what that one's actually for! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
