boost gauge pipe
« 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?

look where the wing meets the bonnet and you should see a tiny gap

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

+1 for Rhys thats where I put mine untill JKM re-routed if for me when doing my cruise control. They put it through the fuse box.
