imupabove Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 (edited) i figured this would be the best place to mount it at. i thought i would never find a good spot , im pretty proud of myself lol. i hooked it up to the radio just to see if it would work. where is the best place of accurate voltage readings, battery or amp? or its fine on the radio? and can anyone help me or give me an idea what to cover that hole under my EQ. i used a squared styrofoam before but i know it can look better. thank you.

tyhead Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 I've heard having it hooked right into your amp works the best. Wouldn't it fit under the EQ? i think that would look better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liftedranger08 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 As long as your happy with it, thats all that matters. Yea hooking it to the amp is the most accurate.

ktm300 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Just cut a piece of abs and put it under there, if you want to speend time on it, you can center the meter in the middle, but put it behind the plate you make. Then cut a window so that way only the voltage reading shows through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David78 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 (edited) Use a piece of clear plexi and frost it, and back lit it with any color you choose, and you can get make a design with the frosted glass (car logo, Team name, etc). And the stinger looks great.
