That's one of the things I'm concerned about... that and where the airfilter is located.

But on the upside of it, I found one cheap, and I could keep my longtubes

Mechanical gauges are cheaper tho and usually do not even require a power source, unless you have back lighting on them.

will only leak if improperly installed. I know many people running mech gauges in the passenger area with no problems- ranging from DD'd to 10.50 mstangs.

I'm famous! My leg made Muscle Mustang / Fast Ford's Sept issue (top left corner).






My car was parked next to that red fox body.

there was a discussion street glow (or whatever it's called the other day). i had a meeting for work last night. by the time it was over it was dark. i had parked by this kid who drives a nice clean celica and i always thought it was a nice car. he told me nice car and i said the same. then he tried to act all "hard" and put on some rap and turn his underglow on. it looks dumb as ****.

after saying that you all will think i'm a hypocrite with this question:
are LED lights too "ricer" for the interior of the car?
-i was thinking just a strip of LED for the footwell.
--are there any other light solutions to get some light down there, but maybe not as much?
-i was thinking after i get my system together, maybe some in the trunk.

thoughts?

i'm guessing you all will say rice.

In my opinion very little interior lighting is ok as long as you don't go off the wall with it.
