Fitted my new gauges
 
Took no more than 2 hours from start to finnish and whilst doing this decided to move a few bits and bobs around a bit to try and make it a little bit tidyer:)

I aint being funny mate, but that shot of you centre console looks like a bit of a hatchet job.

Do you need all those read outs? I know loads of turbo owners, and the most they have is either the A-Pillar gauge pod or the dash mounted ones, and maybe a turbo timer tucked away somewhere.

I just dont understand why you need all those gauges/dials etc which all look different and, without wanting to sound rude, look like the controller for a remote control car bought from pound land.

I sincerely do not mean to offend, but u asked what people thought, and i think it looks a bit messy. Isnt there some other way, if you do need to know all the info these things tell you, to buy a more compact, neater looking unit. As i said before, where you have removed the bit of trim along the top of the centre console bit, showing the screws either side just doesnt do anything for me mate.

Sorry

No offence taken i know it still looks a bit un tidy,but i am on the look out for a new center console trim.The only gauges i have added are the genome STI set and control unit.the blitz and hks and inside/outside temp was already on the scoob when i got her earlyer this year,and trust me when i say this but it looked a whole lot worse than it does now.As for do you need all these gauges well i suppose you dont realy,but seeing as this scoob has been well modified by the previous owner i do fined having these puts me at ease to what is happening under the bonnet.:)

Fair enough. If you havent done the mods yourself, i suppose it makes sense to know how the stuff someone else has done is affecting your car.

Glad what i said didnt come across wrong.
