CaliConquestAlex Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) I'm looking at EGT gauges and came across this unit on eBay. It seems like a decent unit and I'd like to ask you all if you think it would fit where the ash tray slides into? The measurements state that it's 1x2x3 inches. http://m.ebay.com/itm/200339741326?nav=SEARCH http://i21.ebayimg.com/07/i/001/31/cd/b002_12.JPG Edited April 11, 2015 by CaliConquestAlex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr-starion Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 I removed the wiper cancel switch down below on the left and put that unit in the hole. Fits like a charm. Pm me you number or email and i could send you a pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliConquestAlex Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) I pulled the trigger and bought it. Looking forward to incorporating EGT into my tuning. I have a second o2 sensor port on my downpipe and I'm hoping that I can use an adapter fitting to put the egt probe there.

CaliConquestAlex Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) I decided that rather than putting it in the wiper cancel spot I just used my dremel tool to cut a square out of the ash tray for this to fit into. The visibility while driving will be better IMO. I'm waiting on a o2 sensor to 1\8 npt adapter and then I'll install the meter and post a video over the weekend.

CaliConquestAlex Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 It's not finished yet, but you get the idea. I'll probably figure out a way to screw in the ash tray so somone doesn't accidently pull it out and screw up the wiring for the sensor. I just sprayed some vht wrinkle finish on the ash tray because it was kinda faded before and I like the look of the paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedyquest Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 I was going to ask what happened to the tray. It looks like it caught fire lol. I'm guessing the pictures aren't doing it justice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliConquestAlex Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 The wrinkle finish paint hides the imperfections. It has a cool texture. I'll post a pic once it's installed and working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
