It looks really attractive and would add a lot to the car. But how hard was it to snake the wires to the areas needed. What gauges did you decided to use and why?

Imput needed

Thanks

I've seen people install pods like that on other vehicles and it didn't seem horribly difficult, but i'm not sure on a mustang

If it's the one that I'm thinking of CDC style then it was not that difficult. The one thing you need to know is the gauges have to be electric period, no mechanical. I tried to save a few dollars by using a mechanical boost gauge and that will not work.

As far as the install goes once you figure out were the wires go thru it's easy. Test fit it first and see hopw it fits. The double sided tape is to far inside the unit and does not stick well. Mine did not stick on the sides like it should have and now it's to late to go back and use something else, or at least for now.

Other than that I really like it. At first I thought it messed up the interior, but now it looks like it belongs. I have some pictures of it installed and if I can get them resized I'll post them for you.

Thanks Mike

A mechanical boost gauge works just fine in an 05 Mustang GT. Is it just not compatible with the CDC pod?
