Default Guage location

Hi Guys,

Ive just entered into the guage GB and am now wondering where to actually put them.

What do you suggest for ease of seeing etc etc

Alternatively you can locate the defi controller II in the glove box in the handy thing which is supposed to hold the manual - bit more tricky to press record whilst you're driving though!

I've also got a couple of guages in an A-pillar pod - I'm not near the car for a couple of weeks but am happy to post pictures later if you like.

Also have integrated Knocklink - so the LEDs hang down from the inside of the cowling which covers the speedo. Looks very neat. Mat at RCM does a very good job of this.

Unforunatley you will loose your clock unless you can fit it into the blank plate beside the cup holder. I believe that the Zero Sport pod retains the clock. You can get it from David Hendry (Hendy ) cars.

I have also been thinking about this i.e the original question of where to position the gauges - Centre console or A pillar.
[ Think I prefer A pillar at the mo... but not sat in a car with them fitted in that position ]

Any opinions ?

Also is one position easier to fit than the other ?
