Cool

I fitted my gauge into a pod mounted on top of the dash next to the driver's side pillar. I don't see much use in a boost gauge that you can't _safely_ monitor whilst actually driving the car.

Rob,

Nice one. Personally I removed the ashtray/lighter and built a double-height fascia with my guage mounted. GGR supplied the guage. I am going to rework as the MY94 WRX uses a slightly 'proud' fascia and mine is not fully flush.
All this for a dial you can't even look at when driving! Hehe!

Agree with Moray...helps if you can actually look at the gauge safely while driving!

I fitted the Subaru column mount gauge, looks really good as it matched exactly the cars dials...nice illumination as well. Available from GGR (if you have loads of money to spend!) got mine from a mate.

I fiited my boost gauge in the drivers side vent - veryeasy to see and the air vent still works (not quite as good as before but still effective (and keeps gauge cool )

PS - Picture was before vent was reseated properly and I don't get reflections normally

We now have access to a DIN sized mounting frame which will take 3 x 45mm 0r 52mm gauges, each one of which is angled towards the driver. That's for those who don't want the top centre gauge console.

There are 3 seperate designs. Pictures & prices will be on our web site Soon.

Mike.
