Legal boost gauge positions?

[Serious-Seven]

i have mine mounted everywhere

is this legal ?

seriously i have no idea if the amount of gauges floating around the car is legal..

why not just remove your cigarette lighter and socket, shave the hole diameter a poofteenth more, and 'slide in' a nice 2 inch Speco guage with a black bezel.

Bung in a Dick Smith BLUE L.E.D with a 300ohm resistor in series inside, instead of the stock dorky globe and................Total Class!!

Mine looks nice!! I'll put picks up if u want.

And... as a bonus............you can actually read the guage when in 2nd, 4th and 5th Gears!!!

NB. In the real world, you're not "checkin' out da boost" all of your driving time, only every now and again just to see how your baby is going.

If u need to look at it all the time, then maybe, you shouldn't drive around where other people are co-existing!!!!! :wassup:

i've looked into that idea superspit, would be a VERY sloe fit to get the 2" guages in there!!

have you already done it??

all done, not difficuly at all, as the ashtray and facia area come out soooo easy. The cuting of the cig lighter diameter is the slowest bit......but done, it can be!!

Feedding the little airpipe is a breaze too. I took out the glove box and ........found the engine bay grommet. easy install Craved. (1 hour total)

2"Speco Guage $45.00 complete!!

give it some thought!

I just got the gauge done like urs at Advan while they were sorting out my boost spike problems....it looks !! so much better there than on the A pillar...everyone should do it that way...

cheers for the idea man

If they are gonna defect you for having gauges on the a-pillar then every taxi in australia is defectable coz they have there LCD screen thing there.

Placing gauges on a-pillar does not block ur line of sight either, coz cops try use that bs also, unless u got a bigass monster tach there.

Last time i got defected they defected me for having my safc mounted on the dash above the middle 2 air vents coz apparently that blocks my vision but didnt say anything about gauges on my

a-pillar.

reason i got done with a pillar stuff is cause it's in the "crash zone" so i would be another impact point for your head etc in an accident!! but thats what seat belts are for :confused:

thats what seat belts and airbags are for.

Cool, it keeps it out of sign from the fuzz aswell.

They see a cluster of gauges and BOOM the red and blues are on and your walking home funny.
