              • Over the weekend I pulled out most of the dash, battery, windscreen wipers (don't ask) half of the steering column cover, air intake and multiple lights and switches; just to fit a boost gauge. Seriously the worst job I've ever had to do.

                And the new steering wheel cover doesn't match the existing colour, so I have to get some paint made up next weekend.

                I also replaced my side mirror indicators and rear licence plate lights. Quite a good weekend I guess...

                      Could have been worse. You could have run down a pedestrian I guess.

                      More expensive would have been if the coppers saw you. $225 + 3 points IIRC

                        Sooooo nice, but...... maybe I'm showing my age, the towhook is a definite fail.
