Thats how I wanted it but I think we have a different metal brace to other ppl. Everything screws in the middle and locks into the little slots (red circles) but the climate control mounts further to the bottom than center (top two red circles).

Also the climate control is slightly wider at the front and only seems to fit where the brace is shallower (blue line)

If you find a way it fits without cutting and drilling I'd like to know how

I wonder if the climate control unit and/or the bracket are different between the V (auto) and the S (manual). The S has the factory three gauges up the top and then the climate control in the middle (sometimes it's the other way round)..

As you can see in the photo...I wonder if our manual friends on here can tell us is there a difference in the climate control unit or the bracket because like you, I don't want to do any cutting or trimming of he bracket

If someone has a pic of an auto bracket il post up a pic of my manual bracket.

My pic is of an auto not sure if it gives enough of an idea where things sit.

I've already outlined the main issues I can see. When I tried to put the climate control else where it just didnt want to fit.

Just another question, where did everyone run the boost line through the firewall?

[SatchiThaStagea]

Drivers side kick panel, then inside the guard and back up into the engine bays seems the go...

Ok thanks. As a temporary solution I took one of the bolts out if the accerator cable holder and put it through there.

Does anyone know if you the brackets pictured below, would be suitable for the gauges/climate/stereo order?

They look the same as my rs4s ones.

Awesome, thanks for that mate. I've purchased them through Import Monster so they should be here in a few weeks... fingers crossed that they will do the job.

There shouldnt be any probs with changing the gauges to the top, I'm gonna move mine to the top also. Although I still got 1 spot left to put another.

[GTR260]

I think I searched for ステージア(Stagea in Japanese) under the Car Audio category. I did a lot of trawling, things seems to be listed all over the place

I saw this on Import Monster

Is that for a S1 or a S2?? More importantly...is from the RS4S or a RS4V??
