After breaking my pillar pod I needed a new one. Now after a suggestion from a fellow member I got a specific mr2 one from dc performance. I'd like to state the products excellent and the service wad excellent also came within 2 days of ordering.
The pic quality is poor as it was dark but so will take some tomorrow

How come you made oil temp gauge into a water temp gauge? Now you have 2 water temp gauges and no oil temp gauge?

Or are you planning on getting a new oil temp gauge?

Because I like to have live data up and I hear it boiling after a long run so want to keep an eye on it. I will get an oil temp too I think

It's the coolant boiling next to the red hot turbo. Perfectly normal, although a little unsettling when you first hear it after you've put the car to bed 8-[

Just fitted my bewildered t bar seal tonight. I am unsure about the gap on the roof though.

I have stripped a spare set of glass. The rubber looks good but used to leak worse when fitted. Do you think I should re silicone the seal on the glass or get some eccentric guides?
