hay guys im trying to run a digital shift light n a oil pressure warning light with a oil pressure gauge n a water tem gauge, both mechanical lines n Auto meter.

i wana mount them on my dash but i don no were to run the braided lines,

i was thinking bout seeing if i could run them through the windscreen vents. is it possible n were is the best place to run them through the fire wall to get it to the engine?

can anyone help me as these are critical before i get this car down the strip to see wat time i can pull.....

I would never run an oil pressure line into the car. From your wording it sounds like a mechanical gauge which is not only illegal to have inside a car, it's highly unsafe as the risk of a line or hose end coming loose, causing oil to spill and potentially start a fire or cause blindness. My suggestion would be to change over to electrical gauges with warning lights built in. Might be more expensive in the short term but worth it for the longevity of both you and your engine.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
