To start I first posted about three months ago trying to figure out where to mount the FC in my 94 because the glove box is different from the 94 to the 93. I looked at a lot of different mount locations, but NONE of them allowed you to see the FC while driving including the cigarette mount (can't see when turning the steering wheel), cell phone mount (cheap looking), ash tray mount (who wants to look down at it), mounting to the right of the steering wheel (still can't see while driving for the steering wheel).


I searched the net and came across Proclip.com and the idea hit me. Check out the pic and tell me what you think. It swivels, you can detach it, doesn't block the AC, it doesn't vibrate under hard acceleration, only cost around $30.00, plus it's right in your face when you are driving which makes it easy to monitor.

Umm, I'm going to velcro mine to the cig lighter so I can see it when I look at the gauges.

I tried this mounting location but you can't see the display when you are driving and try going around a turn under boost while reading the display IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!

Why are you taking corners under boost and trying to look at your gauges?

Looks good!

I just REALLY wish Apexi would make a new commander! There's just no really good way to mount it, the screen sucks...it's just a crappy way to go. But, it's all we've got .

I hate the thing. It's so old looking. And the screen is really hard to see in the sunlight.

First off it's MY CAR and I will drive it any way I like, second off is there are plenty of long curves that give you a chance to be under boost. I'm not talking about a 50mph tight curve; come on now of course I have more experience driving to attempt that stunt.

At most you should be glancing at boost gauge, not trying to read and decypher numbers off the commander in the middle of the turn.

I'm trying to get FEEDBACK ON THE MOUNT, not my driving.

It's cheap, it's clean looking.....but functionality? I'd have to see it in action.

And were giving feedback about a different mount that you said does not work well. The thing is, it does work well, it just doesnt work well for your driving style per say. No need to get all defensive, just seemed odd that somebody would be trying to read some little lettering while cornering "hard".

This is why peak and hold gauges are awesome. You can set them to flash a warning light when you go over a certain limit.

Nice stereotype, retard.

If we didn't care about how our cars look then we wouldn't own an FD jackass. Theres no reason to be reading your PFC while under boost. It is what it is, watching your intake temps and what not isn't going to change anything. Get a datalogit for that nonsense and see what lifes like AFTER you drive.

My PFC is going to be hidden, but accessible for if I need it, probably in the glove box. If I want to seem my A/F I would mount a wideband, and you should have easily read guages for temps/boost. :o

I just velcro'd mine to my dash, right above the hazard light.

I used the industrial velcro, it and doesn't harm the plastic. This is rock solid, and has never fallen off. I can view it perfectly minus super sunny days from the driver's seat. It has survived being slammed into a pickup truck from the rear, so I think it'll hold out for guys with big turbos, or any accidents.

dubulup

anywhere you mount it; looks tacky...that should be stowed

^^Agreed. Thief bait too, as if you needed more.

But when ya gotta see it any ~$10 cell phone holder will do.

SMonty

that thing is hideous. I would hide it and only take it out when no ones watching.
