Best way to route wires on column mount boost gauge?
I just got my Autometer boost gauge and cup. The install looks straight forward enough, but I'm not sure where the best way to route the power and boost hose behind the dash.
I want to keep it looking as clean as possible! Anyone have pics showing the cable routing?

The factory option cup and guage have the wires/hose routed with a 1/4-1/2" black plastic corregated hose. I put an Omori guage in the stock cup and kept this routing, looks clean.

Yeah, but do you have a side/angle pic so I can see where they route the corrugated hose? Do they just run it over the back of the steering column under that bit of rubber?
BTW, still enjoying the ECUTEK Jefe? |

yep, under the cluster rubber shield and above the steering column. should be a very clean setup.

Thanks guys. I'll take some pics when I'm done to show it off. Hopefully the results will be show worthy.

that's what I did thru the steering column. for power, I tapped into the fuse box vs. the stereo.

imprezive one: You can pickup the corrugated hose from either your local auto-parts store or even electronics stores (like radio shack) might have them. |

Edit: It requires some 'custom engineering' for it to work, but it will. You can find split-loom at nearly any autoparts store, wal-mart, target, etc.. Look for the electrical supply section. |
