Well it looks like another project on a larger scale.

Klink10 · 02-20-2009, 03:54 PM

Solved it.....took a kidney bean can, wrapped it in duct tape (black) to stabilize. Works perfect.

Excellent ideas!!

The pucks are really cool, well done, Carrot Top!

i thought it was illegal to have something cover up your meters (speed and etc)?

If you are talking about the hockey pucks picture, that was only to show how he did it

LEGATO`` · 02-20-2009, 09:41 PM

but it really is illegal though?

Wouldn't know and even if I did ... different laws here .. Puerto Rico ... anyways ... why would you want to want to cover them ... the more gauges and lights the better!!! (rice-ish comment I know ... )

LEGATO`` · 02-20-2009, 10:02 PM

oh,
well its also a good place to place a gps thing on there
i have a tomtom and its small enough to where i can still see my speedometer even when its on there, and the speedometer is kinda the only thing i really look at when driving other then the rpm

I don't say it cus' you need to see the speedo and the tach I'm just saying the more your car looks like a light show the better ...

AlexNet0 · 02-20-2009, 10:40 PM

I prefer to have the car look bone stock and just bump up the performance

not to keep a thread hijack going..

I was just showing how the pucks looked screwed together, when I took the picture...I wouldn't drive with the GPS covering up the gauges. Safety first my friends! :)

here's where i mounted mine, it's in a good spot for the "navigator" in the passenger seat to operate

Am I the only one that noticed the car in the first photo was doing almost 90?

No, he's going about 52 mph. It's showing KM/H. (Canada)
