So, DIY fixing of first world problems.

I dont like sticking holders / satnavs to the right of my wheel, I naturally prefer to look to the left. Unfortunately in a gallardo, sticking space is limited to the windscreen, which is simply annoying.

So, bit of lathe work later...

i.php



Key to pull it out with (does not go all the way through though to maintain the suction seal.

i.php



Felt tape to allow for a snug but safe fit

i.php



Vent removed.

i.php



Slots securely and snugly into the vent hole.

i.php



Fits TomTom mounts perfectly.

i.php



Generic cheap phone holder to test with.

i.php



Fits perfectly.

Realized I couldn't take a picture of my phone while it was in the holder.. so old phone to the rescue for demonstration purposes :)

DIY continues.

Was a lovely day and thought why not install the kline button until the exhaust goes on for the lols.

i.php


Cup o tea, check. Button kit, check. Lambo, check.


Back grill off.

i.php


i.php



Which gives access to the vacuum lines solenoid.

i.php



Unplug...

i.php



Plug the kline controller inbetween the 2 connections

i.php


i.php



Hide the controller somewhere dry

i.php


All done!


So... testing... does the button work.


Yup :D


Some revs before....



And after




Had some belt noises appear yesterday, theres only one belt on a gallardo and thats for the alternator. Have ordered a replacement for a whole 8 quid :D
