I like that idea, looks clean and easy but its a little tighter getting up to the oil filter in a 1.9 (What I have) than what you got there...think it would fit? From there it looks like I just need oil pressure and oil temp gauges...run a couple wires to the front and mount them somewhere. easy peasy.... ryan 1.9 WBX
