Okay so I've had a real good search of the forum and havering real trouble finding a hole in the bulkhead in order for me to feed a vacuum hose though to fit the boost gauge,

Can any one please point out the best place to find a space ?

Thanks

Under the bonnet, right hand side, below the abs/esp unit you should find a black grommet, pull it out, it comes out in the passenger foot well, if you require pics i can upload some tomorrow for you

in the above pic, the red cable leads to the general area of the grommet




this is a close up pic,

the grommet comes out in the passenger footwell, behind the carpet, if you push enough hose though you will be able to feel it, the hardest part is actually fishing it out when its behind the carpet,

hope this helps

Sorry to bump an old thread, but can you please tell me where did you tap to get the boost/vac for the gauge?

And also, if you used a vent pod, how do you lead the wires and tubing, you need to drill a hole in the ventilation system, remove the dashboard or something? :blink:
I have only used a gauge once and it was on a stick-on pod over the steering wheel column.
