DCW Triple Gauge Pod Installation Question - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #94831 7 posts Started by msk59
Hello all: For those who have installed the triple gauge pod on the dash above the vents. How do you run the wires from the gauges through the dash. In other words, what is the best way to run the wires without drilling a hole on the top of the dash? A picture would help.

Thanks

This is how I ran my gauge wires, you don't have to drill or anything to run the wires through the crease line, only thing is you have to deal with wires showing.

Thanks for the picture jgpx12 but i have the one that will go on top of the dash above the clock and vents.
I got those and wires just squeezed between dash and removable center panel. It's like this many years. No issues.

No more replicas... This is evolution... This isSS-four:)________[Featured Celica of 6gc.net @ 2010]_________

Kinda like mine you could run the wires at the top of the center bezel right where the crease is above the vents. I would say to see about running it through the vents on the top of the dash, however you would have to take your dash out and drill a hole through your vent duct under the dash. If you wanted to hide your wiring somewhat that would be the way to go but if your looking for an easier install with no drilling, running it through one of the panel creases is your best bet.

Got it thanks very much. I would like to do a clean install.
