As per title i guess
Recently purchased myself a boost gauge + fitting kit, torn where to mount it though :think:
Would be grateful if anyone has pictures of their gauge(s)

And the Audi, driver vent again:

I think there's an earth to the right of the accelerator pedal... And there's a spare fuse slot that I used for either a permanent or switch live, can't remember which. Have to get the multimeter out . There's plenty of options of places to take power from there anyway.

Oh cheers will have a look now, I was getting tempted to just wire it straight to battery and have it on a switch
