I think individual cups rather than the full moulded surround is the way to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think individual cups rather than the full moulded surround is the way to goid agree what that, and then drop them down into the dash instead of on top (if that makes sense) should see them drop by at least 40 mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There just isn't any room to sink them.They will always be a fair bit proud but I'll be trying to use the smallest diameter gauges next time.Can anyone send me a pm on how to embed pics please??

bunna Donating Members 813 Member For: 18y 4m 16d Posted 01/06/09 02:54 AM Share Posted 01/06/09 02:54 AM In the end they fitted them and reprogramed both of my keys because it 'went into lockdown' when the new set of gauges was installed.Just curious how much they charged you for this? It sounds like they made you think it was a massive effort for them to do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSI40T Member 448 Member For: 17y 10m 22d Posted 01/06/09 02:54 AM Share Posted 01/06/09 02:54 AM maybe you could mold the ba/bf gauge pods into that top bit of the fg... smooth it down etc..... ? just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
healey Member 51 Member For: 16y 5m 25d Posted 04/06/09 12:12 PM Share Posted 04/06/09 12:12 PM Do the FPV gauges light up blue the same as the xr6t ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
