Request: DIY Oil Pressure Gauge Install

rarwz · 03-16-2010, 09:21 AM

not very easily. The problem is that there are usually 3 clips for each 'layer', of which 2 you can get to and 1 is on the bottom side. I just ordered my navtool, and will be taking out the nav unit, i'll let you know if you can get to the 3rd clip on the under side that way.

As of right now though and to the best of my knowledge, it would be quite a challenge.

Oh yea, I never got around to looking inside the navi area. Please let me know how it goes. I'll probably change out the LEDs in the clock first. Too bad this is nowhere as easy as the 350Z.

after taking a look at the AAM install, it looks like all they did was remove the navi area... so this may be a win!

Now as for getting it to mount in there, that may take a little work if your *only* removing the clock as per the depth issue and making it look similar to the others.

Taking a look at this, it looks as if the gauges are all 1 unit. epic fail?
