Default This is how you install an O-meter

I got my toys in from Xenocron and was thinking of good places to install my O-meter so that its not eye catching and looks clean.

This is what I came up with.



The O meter is pretty much the same size as the clock in any EG/EJ civic. so you can put one in where the clock used to be.
I used some double sided tape on the top so it doesnt fall through even though it was sitting very tight. and used a washter and screw on the bottom to keep it from falling back out. its in there tight and wont be going anywhere.




You'll have to trim the housing and the hazard switch so you can plug in the signal wire.

Looks good, could you cut a peice of metal and make a back bracket with some velcrow or 2 sided tape for better support put it between the screw with the washer and the 2 empty holes over top the O-meter

Yeah if you like wasting your time. the reason I didnt is because the way the O meter sits, the top of it where the 2 holes are wants to fall forward. so pretty much you'd be helping it do that. the bottom wants to fall outwards so you need to keep it from doing so. The O meter is a tad bigger than the clock in height. So you pretty much pressure fit it inside the housing and brace the bottom. that sucker wont go anywhere. I put some tape up top for safe measure so it doesnt move at all.
