I know ... I have been lazy. I need to install my twin gauge pod that I bought from AFF ... its sitting in the spare room at the moment ... moulded perfectly for under the ashtray.

Voltmeter and oil pressure that I know of.
Was thinking of get a trans temp gauge though as one point ... just wanting to see how hot the trans would actually get under load. I can rig something else up at a later date though if i need to ... there's plenty of room in the gigher section of the centre console to mount an extra gauge if needed.

found this on aufalcon.com... very white... not sure if i like it... i think it would look good if it was only the outside part (grey) that was painted and not the clock bit...
Have finished my front speakers and headunit install... brought some leather offcuts of ebay to make some brackets to hold the 5"woofers in the doors... also covered the arm rests with some leftovers...

I hate the low series dash, why is the bit that surrounds the stereo and heater controls a different colour to the rest of the car dammit! It's one of the only things keeping me from an XR8

Hey Blink, that is nice. Might I ask what the gauges are for? The TE already has a nice complement...what are the 3 additional ones you have in there?

Thanks mate, one is boost gauge up on the pillar with the turbo timer down near the fuse box. The other two are oil/water temp.
Its actually just a forte with genuine te50 interior, body kit, 19" furys and boosted |

to change from s1 to s3you have to also change the heater box because it is different to s2.... to remove the whole lot on a S3 you have to remove the cd player and theres a screw on each side going in at a 45o angle.... after that im fairly sure it just clips out...
