Default FRAYZ defi gauge installation

Morning all, had my defi gauges installed by FRAYZ yesterday !







And i must say the attention to detail was superb, every wire lovingly soldered and heat sleeve wrapped to perfection.... in fact as good if not better than factory finish....

Here is a couple of links to his own build and quality of workmanship

Thanks again frayz and "maddog" for the sos & egg feast and endless cups of tea....... great job lads....... cheers siv

Nice to see some decent gauges.

Where did you get your gauge pod from? A mate is looking for one for his newage, but needs to be 52mm holes though.

No mate, we kept the air con.

Air con is nice to have in a road car, especially in traffic but having the vent open on the move is awesome
