Looks good!

 

Do you get any reflection from the gauges on the windsheild at night?

 

That's the only complaint I have about mine so far. I'm looking for a gauge hood to elminate the reflection

 

Guess I am not sure what you are talking about here. The gauges face me, so how do they reflect off the windshield? The gauge pod reflecting off? Anyway, no complaints here. I forgot I have gauge hoods - I should see what those are like installed.

I got the idea for this setup from CreoSTI's Spec B, I think it looks good, its similar to the WRX and STI OEM boost gauge location...

I have a casopolis dual cubby pod. About to wire in some Defi D-gauge gauges. Boost and EGT.

 

Anyone have any advice or anything i should know ahead of time?

 

My one big question is where should I be tee-ing off for the boost gauge? At the BOV? the Tee under the intercooler? somewhere else?

my prosports came with pretty nice hoods. I think I might have one or two laying around for 52mm. Shoot them an email, I can't imagine they'd charge you more than 2-3$ each for them

Does anybody have pictures of gauges posted in the ash tray area? I really want to put in there an oil pressure and tranny temp gauge in there.

 

that kind of eliminates the usefulness of a gauge if you have to look down to read them. you usually want them at eye/peripheral vision height

Here's my gauge mount.

 

I had to take the air vent off and custom fit the gauge.

 

Color matches very well too!

Finally getting around to uploading pics of my gauges. I've got a Prosport oil pressure and boost in a custom double 52 mm gauge pod. Despite the pictures, it does NOT actually hit the IP upper trim - just sits really, really close. I actually like it, as the gauges stay just below line-of-sight, but are easy to glance down at when needed.
