How hard is it to route wires through the vents? I've never been up there.

i don't think will be that hard... You just drill the hole where th the vent and run wire from under neath the dash..........

cmr333 09-07-2008 03:46 PM

damn he beat me to it. ive been working on making one of these.

kersh4w 09-07-2008 05:53 PM

they look nice.

Rotr8 09-07-2008 06:14 PM

just emaile block8head about these,,, it looks if he tilted the angle just a few degrees more in the direction of the driver they would be perfect, in the pics of the 8 it looks a lil close too close to the A pillar

greg985 09-07-2008 06:22 PM

thoes are badass, to bad I dont have anything that needs a gauge :( maybe I can get one that tells the time lol

the one on the car was just the prototype ,he said : the new one he make have better angle view and clearance between the pod and the pillar

WVBoosted8 09-07-2008 06:46 PM

I emailed him because I need a oil pressure gauge. After emailing him though I can't quit thinking about how easy it would be to make this out of a standard autometer pod and your factory defrost vent..... I don't know though I am going to look into it more tomorrow.

Yup just talked to Ben about this, he said the same thing I will post pics of mine when I recieve it so people will have a good understanding of what they will get...
He said he will ship Friday....stay tuned...

heyarnold69 09-07-2008 07:47 PM

anyone here make em yet?

Rotr8 09-07-2008 08:35 PM

^^^ no sense in re-inventing the wheel if they already exist

9krpmrx8 09-07-2008 10:58 PM

OHHHH I want. Nitrous guage FTW. It will take some work to run the wires, etc. Please post pics when you get it.
