Default Mantis Gauge install....>>>>

well, had the Mantis for a bit, and finally got around to installing gauges. Went with Defi D gauges and seems to be a good combo.
Need to finalize some of the wiring this week, but you will get the idea. Went with Oil Temp and A/F gauge...boost gauge next in one of the vents...

Sorry bout the crappy pix...weather was not the best and the lighting was equally bad. Better shots tomorrow.

Love the look, and as always Raffi's stuff is great.<ul><li><a href="http://public.fotki.com/TTinCT/tt_modifications-1/mantis_lands!/">http://public.fotki.com/TTinCT/tt_modifications-1/mantis_lands!/</a</li></ul>

Default For the Mantis???? >>>>>

OMG, yes....I think it took me LONGER to read the instructions than actually doing it!

Just working on recreating the red LED look under the gauge pack now....should be pretty easy.
