I'd much rather have a Fiat Panda than a Toyota Yaris! I'd rather be lent anything than a feckin' Yaris! :sick:

Stop it, don't even think about it.

Only months ago your car was to remain standard and now look at you  :signLOL:

As a rough guide, you'll need the gauge pod, the gauge and a vacuum tap off kit (Forge or BSH normally).  Expect an hour to fit, maybe more if you want the back lights wired in.

....And so you should be ashamed! :ashamed: The last post I read in another thread before reading this one was about "planting seed"! I'm not going to ask you how you "approached" Kate but I'm jealous!

the gauge and pod was about £120 from awesome irrc. Aps put a forge DV on aswell as fitting so it come to around £190 for the dv and fitting.
