Default S1 people with gauges


can anyone post some pics of how they have mounted gauges in their S1.

ive brought a couple but im not sure weather to mount on the pillar, or if i can mount on the front dash somewhere.

cheers

I made one for Chelsea-Bully for £25, and I still owe Andyt one as well, but with work being totally nuts I haven't done it for him yet . But I guess if I'm gena do one for him, another won't hurt.
