Default Has anyone sucessfully added a Boost Guage to their allroad?

I'm considering an attempt at replacing the voltage gauge with an analog boost gauge. It looks like AWE may have one that is OEM in appearance including the red back light. Anyone completed a "slick" installation (i.e. not A-pillar or vent mount)...pictures?

Default I'm not aware of this being accomplished on any current Audi's instrument cluster...

...O.CT., however will sell you a new instrument cluster that has an integrated digital boost gauge in it, although I don't know if it works with the allroad. Check with Stratmosphere.<ul><li><a href="http://www.stratmosphere.com/">http://www.stratmosphere.com/</a</li></ul>

Default

That is very gucci, but I think one could do a DIY install for much less $$.

Default I had it in my S4 and I don't see why it wouldn't work on the ar. Couple of issues with them though

The font is different, the color is wrong for the ar(matches S4). Also, the maximum boost it measures is 1.5 bar. Kinda sucks when your car hits higher boost (like my Awe stage III did).
