Rich,

Are you fitting them yourself mate? Mine will be arriving soon and i would love to fit them myself but not sure if i can. I have provisinally booked into T.S.L to be done but i can't really afford £210, which is what they want to fit them

TSL are one of the best around ( if not the best) but If I wasn't fitting them I would use scooby mania down the road have a look at madgrips post for their prices as they do so many of them they will know what they are doing and are cheaper

- worst case the gauges dont work so you take it back, not like the car goes bang as with a re map etc


I am gonna give it a go and if it all goes pair shaped at least I know I tried, you proably will see all my posts asking silly questions when I start

Cool

Defi's are probably the easiest gauges on the market to fit.
You only need a bit of confidence and a spare afternoon to fit them.

If anyone want to come to me I will fit them for you for £100!!!!

Seriously though, James save yourself £210 ffs, gimme a shout when you've got them and I'll do all I can to help you fit them

Hi Dave,

Can you elaborate on that a bit more, i'm having a few things done at the same time, and deffo can't afford it if it stretches over what iv'e been quoted, what happened with you then mate?

Had some gauges and a turbo timer fitted. They gave me a price and how long it would take, yet it took them 3 hours longer and they charged me for it. i was there 7 hours to fit 3 gauges and a turbo timer. When they say it will cost this much and take this long that is not a definate price, if i takes longer than they said they will charge you for it.

As you can tell i have found somewhere else where i take me car now and IMHO i think they know more about scoobys than TSL

We charge 3 hours (@ £30.00 per hour) to fit gauges as above. If we run over it still costs the same!

Scoobyfella - Rang JW racing today and they don't do the Defi pod only copies, I ve been told to stay well clear of the copies as at night the gauges reflect on to the windscreen

I couldn't get hold of the pod, Roger Clarkes had one left put it had a big sold sticker on but thanks to the guys who tried

JIperformance had to order them in and I couldn't get through to nitosport

Graham goode will be getting some in January

they all seem to charge £130 ish

Thanks for everyones help and advise, i will be chuffed when i get these little babies fitted

Rich, i'm a little worried about this pod now mate, how would it reflect on the windscreen? would that be the reason the genuine pod overhangs the gauges? and are they very bright as well?

Hi Rich,

Just to let you know my JW RACING replica defi pod came today and it is superb quality, and i don't think there will be an issue with it reflecting on the windscreen as they have quite a large overhang just like the genuine defi pods.
