wideband pics needed
I just got a m300 and i want to do a trick install in a eg coupe (yeah yeah yeah, ej2 i know 
). The only place that seemed suitable would be the clock area. I was thinking since the readout on the lcd is about the same width as the clocks "tinted screen" i would put it behind that. Has anyone done this? If so post a pic. Also If you guys put any gauges or meters or whatever in the clock area post that too. ALSO hehe, any other trick wideband instal post!!! I have searched but did not see this yet or much else besides red x.

I have the wideband guage in my a pillar as well. Also I have the M500 so I datalog my 3rd gear runs. One is a VAFC, another is AVC-R. I'm running ZDYNE right now but I ahd VAFC from before so I may as well keep it. Too lazy to unwire it. :D Plus it looks sweet. I didn't sue CF sheets cause I really could careless about CF haha...

Re: (mphinesee)
im actually doing it the install now...requires cutting/ modifying the air ducts which sux...and it looks like im gonna lose the driver side air flow ..oh well the thing that sux is the dremel i finally got burns the plastic and the fumes suck 
otherwise i think the install is going okay..ill try to post a pick when its done unless the install goes sour then its just velcro and dash or somethin hehe

that looks nice...well although i dont have pics up yet i have mine in the clock the readout is perfect behind the clock screen..no cut off numbers and its not too high or too low
...it took some massive grinding/melting (high speed wheels with plastic = toxic fumes) with a dremel. basically i had to trim the edge of the center vent duct and i had to cut a hole in the air duct that leads to the driver vent for clearance (the wideband is hella deep compared to the stock clock)...since the air would flow in the open dash area i had to make a block off plate for the cut duct (made out of cd case plastic trimmed to shape with a rubber vaccuum hose glued to the perimeter..this helps seal and also keeps it in place by pressure since i didnt want to glue the thing in there). air flow out the center vents resumes as normal..however there is no air at all on drivers vent as planned...its cool tho since i have a stock install..you cannot tell that the wideband is behind the clock until its on
the only bad thing is during the day i cant see ****. the wideband is glued to the clock via future glue (better than super glue). i can get around that, the point is i need to make the display brighter... to keep the oem look(the clock has a semi tinted screen which i need to keep) , im thinking of taking out the black cover on the wideband's face. its perfect at night though....ill try hard to get pics for you all
the idea is like this thread i found...look at the 8th picture https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1252685
