 :grin: looks really good. Quite a good idea aswell to smooth the vent off. Hopefully looks  :cool: when fitted. Glad I didn't rush to fit the other one lol

personally prefer the pillar pod.

also dont like the look of the smoothed out vent, means that your not going to get any air flow out of it, also may have to block off the air flow in the dash so that the back of your pod isnt getting blasted with hot air?

the gauge thats in the pillar pod is the better one as it matches the cars dash lights will that fit into the vent pod?

Title: Re: which gauge pod shall i use ?
Post by: porter_89 on 06 December 2011, 21:03

Guessing I will have to block air flow off somehow will look into it lol. Well the garage will :grin:

Ive got the newsouth,perfect colour match to dials and pillar pod covering matches standard grey perfectly.

i think they are cheap for what they are and what you get, and great quality. Much cheaper than an amouri etc.
