It's in the drivers cubby hole, down to the right.

Where do people buy the Autometer gauges from? The Phantom 2 look a perfect match for the LCR dash but I can't find any UK supplier?

I got my Autometer gauge from Apex Performance Rob, although having a quick look they only have the Phantom gauges listed, not the Phantom II.

Ebay?

 

[RobDon]

Difficult to find them in 60mm too.

Thinking about going for these:

When i bought my autometer gauges about 3-4 years ago i got them from www.realsteel.co.uk, dont know if they still do them and i only had 52mm ones

 

[RobDon]

I don't think Autometer gauges are going to be an option for me, unless I ordered them from the USA, but that adds alot to the cost. The plasma gauges shown above are out of stock until December, so I either wait for those or go for something else.

Seems like the new Tarox Corsa front brake pads and the rear Pagid pads are fully bedded in now, full braking power has been restored and is back to awesome again! Replacing the brake fluid has helped too I think.

Try ebay rob, I got my 52mm original phantom gauge from there about 4 years ago.

 

[RobDon]

Problem is I need 60mm gauges.

 

[RobDon]

Does anyone have a drivers side A-pillar trim spare, black or grey doesn't matter? Perhaps you've fitted a replacement with mounts for gauges and have the original lying spare, or do you want to swap for a black flocked one with mounts for 2 x 60mm gauges? Can post a pic if you want.

Let me know please as I need one. Thanks.

Got the letter in the post today about the speeding - 3 points and a £60 fine for doing 84 in a 70. I am just going to accept it and move on.

Fair play Rob, been there done that meself

At least you weren't getting done for 84 in a 60 limit though, sounds as though the 'evidence' etc was revisited and the BiB realised they'd made a mistake

 

[RobDon]

Yeah, clearly states 84 in a 70 zone. Oh well, just have to try and find the paper part of my driving license now, I have no idea where it is!

I know someone who can custom make you one but would need an original as a template.
This would be in fiber glass but might be looking into doing carbon fiber ones too.

 

[RobDon]

Carbon would be interesting!

Now your talking sense

 

[Rodie121]

I Have never seen this thread before, I dont know why what with all the response and views you have had! I'm Amazed of the power your getting out of your 180 cupra! Good job I bet it deadly on the road!

 

[RobDon]

Thanks for the comments, it's quick on the road yes, very responsive and torquey, have to be very careful though as speed builds rapidly (hence the speeding ticket for overtaking!).

Decat ftw
