No mate, its an all in one piece that replaces the OEM A Pillar.

Just make sure you put the foam pad backPabs Guide to Installation of Nomad with boost gauge

Yes either with the velco they come with or some people on here use a screw.

If you wanted to use the standard pillar with the proper clips you could always make your own like I did

I'm sure the larger Halfords will sell some. I got mine from Forge but as said no time to order

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

They do sell it in B+Q its with the rope and chain on a roll.....but you really want silicon stuff so it doesnt kink and melt.....maybe wilco if you have one local? or a local tuning company?

 

[swilky23]

Thanks ill give halfords a go no point using b&q if its not gonna last
Cheers

Also if your following that guide above I'd say your better off T'ing the Boost pipe as close to the inlet manifold as possible and not the dump valve end

 

[swilky23]

Cheers for that!

I fitted my boost gauge today using some washer hose from halfords(stupid I know its melted allready but at least its got a route now). It was boosting at 18/19 and I was wondering can you tell bhp from this, as when I bought it I was told arond 260 but there was no graph?

What he means is,he stood watching smoking a fag while i fitted it

Funny as feck that it melted,i should have drilled into the body and fed it under the scuttle panel.I guess that heat shield was there for a reason

Even better to tee off the line from under inlet manifold to the fuel pressure regulator

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Thats where I was on about

 

[Ronin225]

i thought you were on about the inlet manifold to N249 (if still connected) line
