Looking for help on boost gauge relocation

Hello everyone,

I am acquiring the necessary parts to relocate my stock boost gauge to the bottom left portion of my instrument bezzle. So far, I have a single pod bezzle, and stock a pillar cover (no pod). I am assuming I will need to extend the stock wires coming out of the boost gauge to bring it down to where I need it, can anyone confirm? Also, does anyone know of any resources showing how to do this (not sure if its been done).

Thanks for the help!

yes, just solder some longer wires onto the stock ones, all they are is power, ground, dimmer, and boost signal, u shouldnt have any issues, use a volt meter to find out which is which, id tell u but its been a long time since i spliced into them, so i forgot.

actually, you dont need to cut and splice anywires. if you take the trim IFO the dash off and take those few 7mm bolts out then remove the gauge cluster. you can the lift upper dash cover enough to pull the wiring harness for the stock Boost gaugelocation under it and to the front to where you want to put it. Ive done this to mine myself

Thanks for the advice! Any pictures of your setup?

Here are some photos of the finished product. As mentioned, no cutting or drilling required. Hardest part was getting the stock bezel out around the steering wheel:

Looks really good. Where did you get the cluster surround with the gauge housing? Thanks!
