Was browsing the UK Aristo club forum and found this 147 which has a number of interesting features, not least it's FMIC install.



Looks like a reasonable size unit:



Also the engine bay looks like it's had a little bit of work done to it:





A flashy looking ICE install and a rather interesting gauge pod on the dash. I wonder if that's a custom job or if it's available commercially?



Enjoy,

Cheers

P*t*r

The cooler likes like the Trust one that Chickita installed, its about hte biggest you can have whilst keeping your intrusion bar. My silver Aristo had a Blitz 4" core, but that meant loosing the bar completely



That's a hefty sized hair drier on that car - looks around T76 size I reckon. Gauge install is tidy!! And lots of dish given no flared guards.

i've been looking to get a gauge pod that goes where the centre speaker is, haven't been able to find a pre-made one, that guage pod in the picture looks good.

yeah - the instructions on the cooler that i installed says to cut out part of the intrustion bar... but we didnt - and it seemed to fit aiight (pics in my car thread with it being installed and what was needed to be cut)...
Was fairly straight forward! Smile
