    Air vent gauge pods. any interest?

    I have a prototype in with a plastics company at the moment. it will be a matt black oem look blank that fits in the centre air vents there will be a 51mm hole to suit the gauge of your choice. price and pics follow.

      Sounds interesting, its worth checking most boost gauges/any gauges I thought was 52mm?

        If you had to modify to get perfect fit of 52mm would be easy easy with a file. I'd rather do that than have something slack. The bezel will cover up any imperfections you may have.

            The prototype was cut with a 51mm starret holesaw on a pillar drill.
            The gauge fits perfectly i have tried some oem gauges and a couple of aftermarket boost gauges and all held firm, whatever the tolerance needs to be it will be sorted before they are up for sale.
            I will post some mock up photos soon.

              I'd be keen. I have one of these aluminum holders, they look good but don't clip in and need to be glued in or some other fixing method used.

                I think it would look better with the quattro
