    I have about 4/5 of these, as each on I brought was different! I have 3 sets of WHITE VDO gauges and 2/3 sets of Black Gauges with the center console on 2 of them! they all look different to me! I don't understand!

          The centre front console on some models with aux gauges are different, hence different width aux gauges
          Why? don't forget, some models weren't quattro, some FWD front centre consoles are slimer due to a slimer transmission tunnel

            ahhhh.... that might explain it.... also I noticed that some of the gauges seem to be older ..... i.e the paint on the fascia is peeling off??

              Peeling white faces is a common thing.
              If you went as far as to try and scrape the black paint off the gauges ring (trim around each gauge) you'll find early ones were metal, later plastic.
              They were changing all the time it seems.

                are you sure the bracket is sitting right James?
                I spent ages fiddling with mine to adjust it when i refitted my interior, there is quite a bit of movement between the fixing points depending on how the dash sits etc, although yours does look too wide which is odd
                i've not noticed a difference between my fwd and quattro coupes, but they are both B3
