Yeah it was me, I thought it might have been you but i didnt want to stop case you thought i was a wierdo. My mate told me that there was a nice restaurant on george st where all the scooby guys meet some times and just thought i would take a run down to see where it was exactly.

Wuz im sure you fitted the gauges in my old car and my old car had bhp development stickers on the sides.Does the price inc the pod and controler as well.how long would it take to have thes fitted.
sti pretender Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Sorry wasn't me. Fitted the gauges myself, dead simple. Sandwich plate for the oil and temp sensors + new oil filter. T piece, hose and some clips for the boost sensor. Run all the cables and a feed wire from the battery in at the drivers footwell. Fused power connection, earth, power connection for ignition relayed of the cigarette lighter and power connection for the illumination relayed of the ashtray light. Could have linked direct to but I'm always cautious when it comes to electrics. Controller is fitted on the side of the centre console using some velcro stickers and then run the feed wire to the gauges popped the clock panel off to get the wire out refitted it and then fitted the pod using double-sided sticky tape. If you don't fancy DIY you can always try Drivers in Glasgow they are a Defi retailer.

Yes m8 - The price includes a GENUINE Defi pod and Control Unit II (more functions than CU I which the Genomes come with). Takes 3 hours start to finish.
st3ph3n Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Last time I was in drivers the prices being quoted would have brought a tear to the queen's eye. I doubt you'll beat Wuz's price including the fitting by someone that could fit them in his sleep.

That woulda been me Defi's are a piece of piss to fit, get in about it and you'll do them no bother. And if your stuck there will always be one of us at the other end of the phone that can help.

WUZ Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Scoobaroo said: He aint kidding Marty. Fitting the Defi's is 65 of the total price - not bad for your behind to be covered if something goes wrong (hasn't done i the past 12 installations but its your car and I'll want to keep in the same comndition it arrived in!), you want to damage/break something doing it yourself for the cost of 65?

craig mac Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 And they are well worth every penny!! Wuz even goes as far as painting the Defi pod to match the interior of the car!!!
