[QUOTE="jpaz, post: 365948, member: 2971"] So I got the copper line installed today. Took me quite a while, cause I just didn’t know where to put the gauge. I would have to remove the center gauge panel, again, to try to get it in. Just to much work to change, so for now I just put it under the dash. I had it on the left side at first with the plastic line, but It’s in the way of getting in and out of the car. I put it on the other side with the hard line. It’s kinda temporary still because I didn’t have any holes already there like I had on the other side. I didn’t really want to drill any holes either, so I improvised by using velcro. Ya I know, half ass, but I have some industrial strength stuff and it really works well. The backing sticks really good and with the hard line zip tied down, it’s pretty solid. Good enough for now till I figure out what exactly I’m going to do. I would rather have a mechanical oil pressure gauge anyway. Thanks to Stanglover for the idea of putting a black rubber hose over the copper to hide it. The line with the loop is the copper oil pressure line. I was able to get it through the speedometer cable hole with no problems. I did make sure to leave some extra line on the inside in case I need to move it to a different spot. Here’s a couple pics of what I ended up doing. Thanks again guys!
