I am installing the cluster where the ash tray was, this is on the 1982 300SD. Also, what would be the best place to splice in the line to the boost gauge? Right by the manifold? Or anywhere along that line? I have no clue where I can route these wires and tube, so I need some help here....
I put mine through the same hole the AC refridgerant goes through...the blue line above the go pedal.
