Default Hatchback knocklink pictures please

Can any lovely scooby hatchback owners with knocklinks show me where they have put them on the dash?

Erm, forgive my ignorance but is the dash difference on a hatchback then?

I'm a scooby newbie. Only had a bugeye hatch for a couple months so lots to learn!

It's quite a bit different in shape.. Was only asking as the knocklink unit is a black box.so just wondering where abouts topic it without looking out of place.

I take it you have a bugeye wagon/estate?

A hatch would be the 2008-2012 cars

You could do as I did, fix them remotely around one of the gauges, or up the A-pillar. Mine are around a gauge ON the A-pillar, at eye height.

Takes a couple of hours and some soldering.

Thankyou was thinking of something like that.. But also for now? I'm thinking of sticking it just under the cigarette lighter socket in the centre console?.. Just not really in easy view..

Mine wasn't too visible at first, and sadly the car destroyed itself before I saw it flashing...broad daylight, hot, windows down, high speed.

NOW it's visible.......

I would personally fit a Phormula KS3 as having had both a knocklink and a KS3, the KS3 knocks the spots off it (plus you can set it up and it makes a noise )

Not a knock link but iv put my defi link display by the cig lighter socket ,,, thought it may be a bit low but iv got used to it being there and glace at it when needed , my buzzer will sound if anything goes wrong so don't need to watch it all the time but as with any gauges I find myself watching it anyway lol
