You & the the good lady have somewhere to rest your arms when holding hands now.:lvbed-032:

cheers mate thats one of the main reasons i made it, i missed having a arm rest, i smashed my other one up with a hammer after one of the screws that held the bodged thing together scratched me one too many times lol.

Very nice Mikey I like the idea of having a sub built in very cool

cheers ian it cures the road noise a treat lol

Also fitted this after getting back from billing, its splits the frequencies of the cb Ariel so that you can run it for your radio on your head unit, so i don't need to add another Ariel.....

Works really well and seems to pick up more stations than factory radios in cars..never knew there was such a thing until i saw it at billing

Bloody hell Mikey, are you feeling alright we don't hear from you for ago's then 3 posts in 1 day.

Brian S · Aug 16, 2012

Nice one Mikey, i'm going to look on ebay for one of those arial adapters, but shouldn't you be at work? :lol:

I've just posted a thread in the for sale section with a list of parts I need to clear out of my garage so I can move on with my life.....

Just put the temp gauge in the new centre console, could do with a new coat of paint somtime but it's all working. 3 out of the 7 switches have nothing wired into them so have room in the future.

lol your right its a combination of being a bit fuc*ed off at work (changing a fuse board on a 1 year old house and every single circuit has been cut ridiculously short!)

And me noticing there wifi password thats written on the router in the same cupboard as the fuse board lol

Im not really one to socialise on the internet, im a bit weird like that lol I have got a bookface account that i only really update when im on holiday lol.

That looks good mate! where did you get the digital gauges from?....are they 52mm?

Not sure about the dodgy bend below the head unit tho!

666 george · Aug 16, 2012

Got them of ebay, Steering Wheels Quick Release, Fuel Pressure Regulator items in McGill Motorsports store on eBay! There all 52mm, easy to fit. The oil pressure is the only one I have problems with cos when you turn the lights on it drops by 10psi.

How is it earthed? The oil pressure gauge works off an earth resistance and if you have it on a shared earth to the gauge then when the lights are on it will throw the readings out, try running a wire direct to the battery (dont run it anywhere, just straight out the back to test) and see if your getting the same issue. Also try removing the illumination wire and see if that has an effect...

That was on my to do list, it's got a shared earth at the moment. I've run all the wires for a split charge & was going to run it off the spare battery (when I get one). It has no illumination just live, earth & sensor.
