Default there is a good spot to the ......

left of the brake booster on the firewall and it will do nicely. Cut a small slit in it, put the wire through it and then seal it with silcone or equivalent..

Default AutoUnionJack any luck finding these codes that display boost on the climate control?

I tried the combination that one of the forum contributors mentioned last week but could not see anything that resembled boost... For those who missed them it was as follows:

1)Simultaneously push Recycle and Up button
2)Turn the temp *** for the screen to read 51C
3)Press Recycle to get engine temp readout

To get Kmph(or maybe Mph in the States), in step 2 get the screen to read 17C and to get Rpm, get it to 27C

Thx
