golvebox installs (if done properly) can look very neat

my car came over with a few guages and controllers in the glovebox but mounted on some awful carbon fibre which had been cut out with garden shears by the look of it...

id recommend the DIN or ashtray setup, thats how alot of cars over here have done it. but if you want to hide your expensive electrical gear from thieves etc then try a glovebox job!

mine is below the stereo.. I removed the tray below my stereo and made up plastic panel to mount it on. Works a treat, but maybe slightly hard to monitor if you're doing drags and you're after an accurate measurement of RPM and THR in face view.

bit like Grims except looks a bit neater IMHO :P

Pred, my stereo has a silver border for the face plate that nicely covers up the little gap you can see. But your right that it's hard to see if try to read corrections or revs. But I was after a 'stealth' install.

Enrico, the flip cover is part of the factory compartment that came with the car...I just cut it to mount the safc inside it so the front flap can close up and cover it.

How about buy a stand? When driving put the S-AFC just behind the steering wheel or on the middle of the dash(just above the air outlet)

When not driving hide it in the glove box. Just same theory as some detachable face head unit.

However, is it legal to put there?

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
