Ahhh Yes, Ahhh Yes....
WRONG....Originally Posted by nicko
Yes they are legal as long as you follow certain criteria.
Must be on passenger side.
Must not be more reflective than your current paint, ie. no chrome. Black should be fine.
If you run a piece of string from the top of you windshield to end of bonett, guages must not touch string.
Follow those and your fine.
If you dont know the answer when someone asks for advice, dont give a stupud two word answer which is wrong.

Sorry VPWAGZ for the incorrect info i gave. I have been defected before with gauges on the bonnet in same position as azk has described. Its all upto the copper on the side of the road

I've just gone by this (excerpt from vicroads modification guide VSI 8 - section 15) available at:
http://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/NR/rd...340/0/VSI8.pdf
drivers or passangers side doesn't matter, so long as it meets all the requirements....
ZZZZZZZZTUUUTUUUTUUU
does anyone know the rules for NSW? is it the same as vic?
been thinkin bout some for my stato...
Too many projects.....
Yes, they can be on either side. Iv'e had mine on the cowl for quite a few years and never had a second look from the boys in blue! Its the same as anything, if you are being stupid at the time they see you they will use the gauges as an excuse to defect you.....
any1 got pics of outside gauges mounted on the bonnet on vn-vps? cant find a good spot

i have no idea because i set them up legally and stayed within the law but then i was defected for them. so i pulled them off and didnt worry.

More trouble than u think
the guys running Transport SA are noobs lol they always seem to wanna do things differently to the other states.
we can drive, its the silly pedestrians who walk in front of us. i'd more worried about what injury the car itself causes, not some silly gauges or bonnet pins. however, that is my opinion only
