Anyone with a boost gauge / amplifier?

Post by K.I.T.T. »

Hola,

Just wanted to know if anyone's installed a boost gauge and/or amp using the LHD bonnet release grommets to route their pipes/cables through. I'm trying to get some 4 gauge cable through and am having a hard time getting through the second grommet under the scuttle tray. The first one's easy enough with a scalpel and 5 seconds, but the one under the scuttle tray is proving problematic. I haven't tried removing the tray yet (maybe I should?), just wedged it out of the way to try and poke something through. But it appears that even with the scuttle tray out, it's still gonna be tricky to get to without dismantling the bulkhead :(

Mind you it's just not me having big hands (quite the contrary...size 6), so any pointers would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Ash :)

Is this the grommet that comes in just under the glovebox on the inside?
