    Could the fuel gauge be replaced with the VDO boost gauge? they're 52mm aren't they? Then the trip computer can be left on miles of fuel remaining to tell you when you're near needing to refuel.
    034 do the kit for the urs4/6 I asume its the same as the s2

      The 034 one does look smart though!

            I know the guage isnt a perfect match (I missed the last group buy ) but the surround is an exact match for the vent surrounds when sprayed with matt paint

              Nice, good price too. But, the US4/6 have a nice rectangular slot on the dash just begging to be fitted with a digi gauge.
              Also waiting for a price from these.

                  @ hiltoa - are those defi guages? very nice but expensive iirc you need the controller box for them.

                  I am glad I have a guage as I noticed i'd lost around 4 psi of boost off my WOT reading (my guage reads psi) and could hear a leak traced it back and now have full power

                    Is that what I think it is? A different dash in an S2? Is it from a B5?
