Nice set-up. How much did it run you? My pillar n gauges were pretty cheap and works just as good money I saved is going for the built motor!

Custom pillar pod in black suede like to match interior. I'll post pics when I get home, at the Dolphins game now.

I don't think it'll interfere at all with airbags and I didnt disconnect em. Only sticks out about 3-4 inches out.. Shouldn't be a problem at all. Go Fins! Unfortunately I gotta root for the Steelers so we still have a chance, as slim as it may be, to make the playoffs for just this weekend alone.

I will be putting 3 Defi-red 60mm gauges in stock dash location
(that pic of in dash is how it should look when finished)
Fuel pressure,oil pressure,oil temp. And the A/F in the lower A-Pillar
location. I want to not mess too much with side/pillar airbag.
Here we go starting to take dash apart. Also waiting for my new GTM
waterbottle with HKS one step colder plugs. Getting closer to the tune...yes!

Working on the 60mm Defi 3 gauge dash install
front lip is on now-very stealth looking(intercooler kind of hides)
baffles are out of exhaust and that looks great
waiting on one Defi gauge and oil pressure adapter
also 4th guage will be in a-pillar for air fuel
soon it will be time to tune and i hopes this goes good
I expect to do a re-alighnment when all is ready
Bring in the Summer!

Could you post details on the exact models of gauges you chose and what supporting hardware was needed to make them work?

Thx!

Hey Mr Sh0velMan,

All were purchased thru Z1 Motorsports
The Defi controller unit is a seperate purchase from Z1 also
Z1 is great to deal with

Cheers
