I'm wanting to learn how to mod my car and do different things, and work out what aftermarket parts my ute has (which I will ask in the appropriate sections).What I wanted to ask was, has anyone come up with some creative locations in putting different gauges within a ute or sedan (preferably a FG). If anyone has any pics and would like to post them in this thread, that would be greatly appreciated. The only reason I am wanting to put gauges in is the fact the last person who owned the ute has done some mods, and the mods are having an effect with the boost allowing it to spike quiet often.Cheers,Ethan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking that, but I'm wanting something different, like to have them hidden away.. Like down lower than the dash if you know what I mean...

I made one to go under the ICC. I think there's a company that sell them to go there but can't think of their name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
