| They do look very nice in place of the vents, and it makes the remaining vent a bit stronger. You don't even notice a black-faced dial when it's there unless you're looking for it, too! _________________ 1995 Riviera S/C; 4" Spectre FWI  , 6k HID's  , Infinity Reference 5022i/9623i speakers   2.25" Thrush glasspacks  , 3/4" Thick chrome grille  95,250 miles and so many to go!   |

| anytime. the harder part is figuring out which way you want to run the line.. most people run theirs through their firewall.. I chose the easier path, I ran it along the side of the engine bay, into my door, through the rubber seal and up into the pillar. _________________ 1997 Riviera by Buick 3.5" Intense Fwi, 3.6" Intense MPS, 3" ZZP downpipe, Cat delete, 3" Hooker max flow muffler, 8.2mm Taylor Thundervolt wires, Proliance oversized aluminum radiator, external trans cooler, Intense 180* T-stat, Summit cross drilled/slotted rotors, Hawk ceramic pads |

| be sure not to pinch the airline, or your boost guage wont work at all or might be inaccurate.

| I've got the Sunpro Faze boost/vac gauge. It took about 10 minutes to put in. I also didn't route it through the firewall, so it would probably take a bit longer if you went that way.  this might help a little http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/kb.php?mode=article&k=47_________________ 1997 Riviera by Buick 3.5" Intense Fwi, 3.6" Intense MPS, 3" ZZP downpipe, Cat delete, 3" Hooker max flow muffler, 8.2mm Taylor Thundervolt wires, Proliance oversized aluminum radiator, external trans cooler, Intense 180* T-stat, Summit cross drilled/slotted rotors, Hawk ceramic pads |

| You can splice into the dimming circuit, open the door and it's on the far left side of the interior, parallel to where the door would rest against your dash. I just pigtailed into the cig. lighter circuit, the one on the passengers side, because that circuit is open until the key is turned. _________________ 1997 Riviera by Buick 3.5" Intense Fwi, 3.6" Intense MPS, 3" ZZP downpipe, Cat delete, 3" Hooker max flow muffler, 8.2mm Taylor Thundervolt wires, Proliance oversized aluminum radiator, external trans cooler, Intense 180* T-stat, Summit cross drilled/slotted rotors, Hawk ceramic pads |

| Consider attaching it to the A pillar if you can get a pod for it. Summit Racing sells some for Pontiac for $25 - $30. Maybe they can be shaved to fit the Riv? look for part ATM-10211 or ATM-10212 for a single-gauge pod. Have to paint or cover with headliner fabric to match. Or see the Stewart-Warner (VDO Gauge) site for ideas: http://vdovision.com/products/stewartwarnerperformance.htmAlbertj
