After my visit to API on Friday, I had some lovely new gauges fitted and thought you would like to see the results.

The gauges are backlight with a bright blue colour:

I was also struggling to know where and how to mount the APEXI control unit.

The velcro pads that come with the handset are very good, but in my car the only flat service where you would logically mount the unit has the water spray button on it!

So, I bought a SUBARU stereo blanking plate from my local dealer and with a £4.99 mobile phone holder from Halfords did this:

A bit "Heath Robinson" but for the money I think the result is good?

I once saw on eBay a din panel that had been made so you could take the screen and buttons out of the hand controller and mount them in it. I can't seem to find one now but that would look really good.

Anyone know who makes them?

The lighting is very bright compared to the 12 year old bulbs in the main instrument binnacle!

Just buy a mobile phone holder and mod it to do this.





Not the best pics but you get the idea. Keeps it in you line of sight if you're using it to monitor anything.

Good thinking. I was wondering about maybe hacking it up and transplanting it into the sun visor?
