Yep, the guide Hani linked you too is pretty comprehensive, im not sure how long a piece of tube you need, however the one you received should probably be long enough, put it in place through the bulkhead before you start snipping things though just in case!!!

Get a Nomad A Pillar pod then <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Also - does anyone have any specific details on the wires (power) that need to be cut? Picture ideally. Mine it plummed in but the back light isn't wired in. The picture on the link isnt that clear <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
Coupe now sold!

I have found a wire behind my stereo (red and brown) which is live when the lights are turned on. I think its from the ciggy lighter. It will be the wire i will use. But i also need a ignition feed too with mine. I don't like them in the pods so in the dash is the only way, i will be shitting myself while i do it <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Welll i used my leccy windows as theyre dead easy as the wires are dead easy to get too. further to that i used the potentiometer from the interior lights so it'd dim when my lights came on.
Lol, take time when your cutting your dash!!

My boost gauge has arrived and i have been looking in the how to guides for the guide to fitting. I can only find the guide for fitting it into your dash. Can anyone tell me where abouts on the manifold do you take the t piece from and which route you take for the piping into the car.
Also how long does the pipe need to be to get to the dash, as the one that came with the boost gauge will be too short i think.
Thanks in advance.
Ash I found these in my Coupé folder.. Hose from Intake Manifold Hose to Cabin <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

The electric switch wire is best for an ignition switched power source as the ciggy lighter (at least on mine) is a permanent live. Good luck with drilling the dash, I was shaking like a leaf when I did mine but the results look great <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
