Today I managed to get some gauges out of my basement and onto the car. I've had these for a while and today I had the day off. Perfect time to install them!

The set up is a dual A-pillar gauge set up, I went with glowshift gauges (courtesy of my girlfriend ). There is a boost gauge and a fuel pressure gauge.

Here are a couple shots of the gauges being prepped for installation:





I didn't take any pictures of the routing of the wires or the solid copper tubing I used for the boost gauge, however I ran them through the firewall above the engine computer and to the side, up the B pillar, and then under the roof over to the A pillar.

Here is the finished product:





They're clear and easy to read, and can be changed to 7 different colours

Heres a night shot:



Stay tuned! More parts to come soon

Enjoy!!

The new lights look real sharp! I am kinda liking this route better than the much more expensive double Hella setup. A plus for you!

[Edit: you already had a plus for the wallpapers you made]

Thanks! It's a nice alternative to the more expensive set up, however, if I had the money I'd buy the hella stuff. They're top quality.

I haven't completed anything major lately, just been working on some small details and upkeep.

I took some pictures of the headlights after I switched them the right way up... I guess wherever the headlights were made, "TOP" actually means bottom







I also changed my autometer gauges to use 194 bulbs so I could conveniently install some red bulbs for them to match the rest of the interior and my glow shift gauges:



Next thing on the to do list is Series III fuel rails, my side scoops... and maybe even a dyno run

I am not sure if it is the quality of your camera, or the car, but I just love this shot.
