These are mineral deposits from using tap water with anti freeze. you are supposed to use dionized water or distiled. I went with water wetter this time around.
Threw in my Mishimoto sandwich plate adapter. Had small gripes with the way the sensors were fitting in, the powder coating was a bit thick making it hard to thread the sensors in.
we created a nice harness for everything.
the swamp cooler for the garage overflowed and flooded the floor. We used this as an oppertunity to clean everything out. It needed to be done anyways.
had to slightly pull my dash to run the wiring
Justin was checking to make sure our harness was working correctly one component at a time, we checked the power to the lights first
Next was making sure each gauge had power one by one
Positioning of the gauges was one thing we were concerned about. Since we would be checking them on the straights we wanted it to be clearly visible.
Alot of you might think that A pillars are ricey. Well oh well. I have 3 gauges, i dont like the quad pod style, because it blocks things, and i have 3 gauges. I cant see the cruise control button when i drive, and i actualy look down to look at it. Not safe on track. How about the din slots you ask? Also not interested in looking down at the din slots to see my gauges. The A pillar for me was easy and I didnt have to move much to look at it. I think its awesome.
