Title: boost gauge pipe
Post by: golfgar on 08 December 2009, 11:35: Right ive looked at the how to guides,but i cant find the grommet on the firewall to run the pipe through!!! i dont know if its because the guides i looked at were on lhd cars?anyone know of any links to any other ways you can get the pipe to the inside of the car?

I ran my gauge line there and then into the grommet for the door wiring
