Me, well, i've got a voltmetre n ammetre gauge to go in on the pillar.

Im going to run them straight off of the battery through a swtich. As thats where the powers being drained from.

Fcuk knows I was gonna do it myself and just connect them all to the battery. But, i've been offered a good electrician so im just gonna get him to wire up my fog lights, gauges, switches, neons, etc etc in one go. I'd rather someone who knows what their doing do it as messing with electrics can write off ur car.

Crap design. Theres nothing to attacth them onto unless u want a long screw through it or bond it on which would look tacky.

I might be able to get hold of one only at the moment, although I don't have any idea how much it would be or what its worth.
Whats it worth to you guys, if its not gonna cost me silly money to start with I'll add a fiver for my comission and try and get one.

I've just got some info on it...

"The auxiliary cockpit is intended for the installation of nearly all commercial auxiliary round instruments to 52 mm in diameter. Announcements of VDO (cockpit) are best suitable, Racimex, MotoMeter, O.A.E etc. The part consists of PU foam and can be installed without screw connections. Assembly materials and fitting instructions are included."

Thats all I can find out at the moment.

i really realllly want one of those, obviously it would have to be the other side cos it wont fit on that side, too much stuff in the way, mfd for example.

I didn't think of that Kris. As far as I'm aware, they are only available for European versions, unless the mfd is taken off.
