Hi,
Looking for a knocklink and iam looking for different makes, obvious one is Link just too bulky for me.

Anyone recomend other alternatives.

Thanks in advance.

 

Get a KL, and do the following. (I only did this the other day, and couldn't believe how easy it was!!)

Remove the cover from the KL box (4 little screws)
Remove the Speedo/Tacho cowling
Use the cover from the KL as a template
Drill out 4x 3.5mm and 1x 5mm hole into the cowling
Place the KL upside down so the LEDS poke through holes.
Tape the KL down to the cowling.

and Voila!!

 

DetAlarm is quite neat.. no pics but try a search on hear.

Simon, thanks for that will do a search.

i had a fitting issue with my k/l so ended up remote mounting the LEDS - you can fit them anywhere you like then

 

or get a knocklite, same sort of price, same function, looks much better

 

I think it's Rajoo that does the Detalarm, send him A pm.

Try Item number 110020788929 on ebay,cheap and well made.

 

sorry to crash the thread , but what is a knock link and is one fitted as standard to a 95 wrx

 

it shows engine det in a visual format and no they not fitted as standard on any impreza

 

Thanks guys,
gives me a few options for thought

Not sure how much room ive got above the binicle / speedo cowling to place a knocklink, plus drilling holes im not so sure I would need to check.

As for remote mounting the leds, seems a real neat option, but after speaking to a friend who has stripped a knocklink down and thought better of it, I think im better off trying to getting the one I want first time round.

Its all very well buying these mods, but do i want to spend more time fitting them than driving the car? I certainly dont

I can assure you if your car has the 98-00 style dash, then there is plenty of room above the speedo cowling for the whole KL box. As i said in thread above, thats what I have done!! Drilling 5x holes in plastic isn't a big deal, only the fact that they will still be there if you ever remove the KL is an issue.

If you can source another cowling from a breakers, then its easy

 

like the man said its been done - also never had any problems with the remote mounting in mine

 

Thanks for your thoughts guys.

Going to get a Link knocklink and remote mount it.

Looking to get some Defis too so will hopefully mount the Leds in the pod!

Cheers JGT

 

Mine (flat headed leds) are mounted in the Defi pod. They are almost invisible when not lit.
