SyntheticBlinkerFluid Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I would like to see some pics of what you guys have done with aftermarket gauges. I have never been one to trust the factory oil, temp, and voltage gauges, especially in a 20 year old car that sat around in a field for 5 years. So I'd like to see where you guys have installed them on EA82s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I got one of the equus guages too - the silly tubing for the oil pressure isn't really long enough tho - how did you do it? Get more tubing? Whats a source for 1/8" tubing - home depot only carries down to 1/4".... GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rllywgn Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 call me crazy but i drilled a hole through the back of the spare tire carrier... with the glove box out you can see where the firewall humps in for the spare. I knocked it from the inside with a screwdriver then drilled it through the outside... the oil line runs into the center air vent, then out a small hole above the glove box, then through the firewall... im on a tight budget so i worked with what i had.. rllywgn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phizinza Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I know its not a EA82, but you could do the same for a EA82! Yeah, I don't have a stereo at the moment. I just use my PDA as my in car music and video machine. Still working on putting the 6" speakers in the doors... so I don't have any sound yet. But I do have gauges!
