that is very neat,is it just wired into the headunit acc and constant live??were did u run the tubes??

 

[kriso]

It is wired to the headlight switch. The vacuum tube runs through the grommits on the right hand side of engine bay, then under the glove box and into the back of the centre console.

I made my gauge holder from a red bull can it sits on my dash which i think looks good somthing diffrent.For wirein it up i ran the wire from my cig lighter.For the pipe went under my dash behind the glovebox and then back across my strutt brace to the ic pipe.I also covered it some hard plastic cover so it dont rub on anything.

I made some proper consectors up and spliced into the wiring on my head unit, all done properly with proper connectors so I can remove the gauge and put head unit wiring back to normal

Thats how i wanted mine doin but there is no room cause my car has the seat satnav built in to the dash.I dont want to take it out cause iv had to buy ipod lead satnav disc and wirein plug for my sub and amp wish i never now.
