no, thats why you spend a lil more money and get a boost gauge with a warning led, then look @ the peeks on the other gauges :P

If I could fit this under the stereo, it would be well hidden but still easily read, I like it much more subtle looking though.
Is someone parting out knight-rider ??

^ Thats what I was thinking.

About the guages in the glovebox, you angle them towards yourself. You have to look over at them which is a bit of a pain in the ***, but definately sleeper. I've seen a few supras done up like that.

Knight rider, good one. Like I said, it looks like crap but it's closer to what I want then this:


This car is my cars polar opposite


Yikes. Anyway, maybe I'll build something into the glovebox, that's the easiest way.

That looks clean, would look even better with black faced gauges, but clean anyway. Unfortunately the EG doesn't have quite as big a spot as that on the dash.

If you got money to dish out you could go with one of these http://www.defi-shop.com/product/con...ncept_top.html
I think you have to get a bunch of stuff to get it to do what you want.
