Havent done it in heater vent mate, i removed the coin holder/pocket on top of the pull down hatch on right hand side of steering wheel. 52mm gauge fits in there fine and isn't in your face lol. A bit harder to see but no problem :D

keep it way from the vent and get it where you can see it ;) Dont want to be looking down if you want to check boost while driving lol. Rather run it up on the dash or could use a gauage A pillar mount?

Craig dont think all your gauges are working? lol..Also what gauges are they? keep meaning to get some decent oil / oil temp gauges. Something like the racetech ones, which they look alot like.

No just the important one is working :) lol I was supplied some senders with the gauges but the didn't work and I just haven't got round to getting new senders. I haven't got a clue what make they are, the are smoked so all black when off

Fair enough, they do look decent gauges..was asking as I could really do with getting oil temp and pressure gauges at some point in the near future :) do look good on the centre console

Anyways this is where I put my gauge ;)

I put an old gauge pod I had left over from my civic into the glove box to house boost and afr gauges.

That way if anyone makes me an offer I can't refuse I can put it back to standard nice and easily.
