It lets the side down at the minute mate, looks like it's waiting to be finished.
The car is looking awesome as said though :)

You should hear the turbo spin of this thing, its unreal and crying out for a Dump valve, Not long to go now till she's moted and road legal!
Love the guage, id keep it were it is also but try and make it look a little 'more at home' You know my meaning!!
I've got a few things finished today. I adjusted the rear shoes and now the handbrake is perfect. I've also fitted the proper vauxhall metal fuel filter, sunvisors etc. The list is getting smaller!!
- Source and fit door switches
- Source and fit front Indicator bulbs
- Source and fit grommets in door cards
- Mount ECU behind Dash
- Source spare wheel and fit with tool kit
- Connect wiring to rear number plate light
- Finish hoseing to wash/wipe
- Trim front drives so I can fit the centercaps

Keith I have to agree on the subject of the gauge!! I flushed my rev counter into my vent place:

Thinks thats what people mean, obviously on a smaller scale.
Thats picking holes though Keith, cars coming on great. Can't wait to get up close to this!!!!!!
I know what your saying, but I cant see anything wrong with how mine is fitted, if you saw it in the flesh you wouldnt touch it. Maybe the flash of the camera makes it looks wrong?Quote:

If anything flushing in yours looks out of place, I'd have just fitted some SR/GSI clocks if you wanted a rev counter.

I have my turbo gauge located there too. one thing ive found is that the hazard light switch doesn't always stay clicked in.. kinda annoying lol.
Don't worry its only a suggestion Keith, I'm not trying to run your car down.Quote:

Very nice i would of had a custom steering column surround made and then flocked to house the boost gauge like so..

Then you wouldnt have to wear a watch or pull out your phone to tell the time lol
I doubt Keith will ever switch his hazards on lolQuote:
