OSIR RHD Boost Gauge Pod ?
« on: 19 October 2007, 23:09 »
theres me minding my own business awaiting the new car , then suddenly some web surfing turns up ...

boost gauge pod clicky

O-POD MONO
Vented single gauge pod for all MKV Golf and Jetta*
Angled towards your sight
No cut no special skill needed
Simply plug & play
Fit 60mm & 52mm gauge (52mm step down ring included)
*Demonstrate with Defi BF TURBO gauge (gauge not included)
Available in LHD and RHD



now Ive seen the AWE version (not available in RHD) and the various steering pod ones but this is just perfect :laugh:

So where from in the UK?
Anyone else got one?


want RHD pod + the 52mm Defi Blue Racer gauge (blue lighting seems to match VW OEM best)

let the modding begin. :cool:

I like the Defi twin Gauges  :evil:

Have a word with RedRobin he has bought a front spoiler & Carbon fibre bonnet from them. I don't know where he got them from though.

OSIR stuff can be bought through the TT shop I believe. Even if it isn't listed in the website they can get it as they are the official UK dealer.

....That's right - TTshop in Bedford 01234 853 225, ask for Justin or David (the boss) and say Robin (red Mk5 GTI) sent you. They are sole European distributors for OSIR. Riso always puts his stuff up on his OSIR site well before he's able to supply, so it'll take time. His carbon stuff is top quality - He's produced for the RGTI project for example. I've just had an OSIR double skin carbon bonnet fitted - Perhaps I should start a new thread here with pics.

Thanks everyone for the feedback , I will send off an email and report back.

The twin gauge pod under the air con looks cool too.
But I was put off by a) the location having to look down while 'pushing on' and b) 2 gauges when I really only need one, esp as the other gauges I would want , EGR temp etc are more diff to plumb in. dont see the point in a very expensive voltmeter  :grin:

And yes RedRobin  I blame you fully for posting on another forum about said cf bonnet which got me on the OSIR website in the first place  :grin:

For me at this stage and my fussy nature the OSIR pod is perfect.

i quite like the idea of the one that goes under the aircon, but can you still use the 12v. any pics/links?

Steve,

The OSIR site is framed , so Im posting the direct URL.
For the full site you need to go in through the main page.

hope direct linking is ok!

voila......

Oil Temp (or EGR) and Turbo are the two I would get.
The big plus is that those particluar gauges are totally black faced when off which is  :cool:

says ashtray is still acessible , so does that mean lighter too then? dunno cos I aint had the car delivered yet lol

Golf Mk5 Interior linky
Pod under air con full linky

cough possible group buy anyone?

....Well done and styled as below the aircon is, I still think you want to be able to see the boost gauge at higher level so your peripheral vision isn't lost.
