xyber 1 Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Im still hunting for a gauge I like that suits my car and fits with the rest of the interior, so thought It might be interesting to see what everyone else uses and where its mounted, so post up a pic and some details Link to post Share on other sites

Lizard Racing 0 Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 how easy was it to get the gauge in the air vent mate ??? It wasn't hard but the DDS3 gauge is only 25mm deep!I agree with whats been said about the gauge pod I was using. I couldnt see a bloody thing when I was trying to park etc. Sold it on and now have triple moved round and all blended to the A pillar. I will try and get some pics over the weekend.Alex Link to post Share on other sites
J5KE F 0 Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 i have had both central dash top mount 3 gauge pods, and a pillar pods, both types give highly reduced vision. My last vrs gauges where positioned in the passenger airbag section (airbag removed) but viewing the gauges was difficult.I would suggest the vent mount, for practicality.Look in this months PVW, page 73 after the sweet red mk1 write up pd design www.swgmotorsport.com, SWG air vent gauge pods, not sure if they got mk3 yet, but hey should be the best bet Link to post Share on other sites
xyber 1 Posted July 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 I spoke to SWG yesterday, they are just finishing off a vent for the mk3, its the larger centre vent, they're gonna email me when its ready Link to post Share on other sites
