| really not a hard job to get wrong all you need is a holesaw, crimper, cutter and a drill.
i fitted one to my 205 in under half hour, and that included taking out the heater control panel to fit it where the knob is. |

| So long as you've got the places sorted to fit the senders it won't take long at all. Your oil temp and pressure guages you could fir like i did in that thread not so long ago. A/F ratio will be a bit more of a problem as you need to weld a bung onto your exhaust, once thats done it will a easy. Let me know if you want to do them though as i've got 5 weeks off now so loads of spare time. |

| ok m8, mite leave the AF one for a while then, priority is boost gauge. wa i do is just buy boost gauge now as others will take ages to ship from usa, so at least thats in, just get a cheapy, so at least fittings are there wen i import the autometer ones, if thats ok
will get now asap
