boost guage placing on B6?

[audidood]

for those of you who have a boost guage installed on your B6s, where did you install it? i'd like to get a boost guage but all i'm finding is mounting it in the vents, and the AC is hard enough to direct as is...

where do you guys mount it?

a pillar

After an accident you will have a boost gauge mounted in your brain. I wonder if theres any vaccum up here. Hmmmm.

[audidood]

yeah, i wouldn't wanna get owned by my boost guage.

[hyperspeed]

that many people out there with boost gauges on their a pillars i have yet to hear a story of someone having a boost gauge lodged in their head after an accident.

Haha, I got one there on my B5. But i was told the B6's have airbags behind their A-Pillars, thus putting somehting there will get rocket propelled into their brain in an accident. Dont quote me though. :)

i read somewhere before when i was researching this topic and the airbag doesnt even open that way...if it did i would be more worried about the actual A PILLAR getting lodged in your head.

[hyperspeed]

hahah... well the airbag comes down from the top left.. above the window.. its a curtain airbag.

if everyone was concerned about a boost gauge flying at ur head.. id be more worried about the pillar itself.

small cylinder vs. 4 ft long pillar. hahah...

just a thought

So its settled, put it on your A-pillar Audidood, then your car can almost be as cool as mines.

i'm a lemming. i just do whatever everyone else does ... hehe...

[dukez]

No you're Republican. ;P

[audidood]

haha... i'll put that on my mod list. i do have a DV i need to install... i'll try installing that this weekend if i have time. i just hope i don't install it backwards like someone i know

[dukez]

Gimme your old one!!

[audidood]

help me install it and it's yours.

[dukez]

When? Where? Buy beer.
