Hiya,

thinking of ordering one of these



hopefully gonna lob an apexi el boost in there, though the description says "won't fit stock tabs"

anyone have any idea what that means? us Brits are dumb hehe

cheers

I'm thinking they're talking about the tabs that the steering column cover uses for attachment. The upper and lower half are held together by interlocking "tabs" molded into the sides.

 

ahh I see cheers dude

in any case I may need to rethink, thats a 52mm gauge and the apexi is 60mm... *arg* why is nothign in life simple!

 

The stock cover has locking tabs holding it in place over the steering column. This is probably a version of gauge mount that doesn't have the locking tabs. If so, you usually hold it in place with a few dabs of silicone. Who makes it?

 

just found it on the rx7store...

 

hmm has anyone filed this type to fit 60mm in. I really wanna get an apexi as I have the EL unit already fitted and would mean just shoving it in the car rather than another make which would mean more effort than I wanted to spend hehe

 

I think trying to enlarge the opening to 60mm would be too big; you'd be taking out 4mm on both sides, and that would probably go past the edge of the gauge opening.

 

cool 4mm's shouldn't be too hard to take off, i'll borrow a dremel then... cool I think i'll go with it

thanks for ya help mate

 

oops I read that totally wrong... read what I wanted to see hehe

ahh nuts
