Thats one thing ive been thinking of doing. But wasnt sure what guage fita best. how did yours fit? make?model?any links?

also what did you do with switch. was thinking of maybe building a small insert for the door pocket and running the wires down the inside of the door and into the pocket were the switch would sit but wasnt sure.

Its actually very subtle to be honest (other than the material) it looks factory fitted ! You probley loose about 2cm of vision in the very corner other than that you hardly notice it ! It is one of them products that cost pennies to make though theres no way it cost more than £5 to make so thats a pretty good profit on it !

Mate its so easy, just take the light switch out, fit boost gauge. Mine isnt a perfect fit so I wrapped a bit of black carpet left over from when we did my mates floor inside it to get it nice and snug. Take off the underside dash plastic, get a circle drill bit, cut and fit. Job done!
