    read road rules... its defect... i think in other states its ok as long as the cups are matt black and on passenger side.. far as i know sa is illegal for bonnet mounted gauges, pins, or scoops facing frontwards

    with some cutting i fitted the auto meter 2 5/8 gauges under stereo. The bonnet looks good, but means you can't leave your car anywhere.

    which gauges would you be putting there? would be a bit hard to read them if they're all the way down there to the left.
