Will be fitting the 2 gauges below along with the Boost Gauge I already have, to a center pod on an MY00 Dash.

Any advice on the sender units required for the mechanical Oil Presure and Electrical Oil Temp would be appreciated.

I understand that clearance around the Alternator can be a problem if the incorrect sender is used.

P.S How do the gauges fit into the pod as they come with brackets and 2 long threaded studs, but I cannot visualise how they will secure.

Pete,

Will be interested in one of your pods.... are you able to get the senders too ?

How do the gauges secure in the Pod ?

Glad to hear the cars nearly ready Bryan... that engine bay up to concourse standard yet ?

Hi Scott,

Call me a sad ******* but I went and cleaned the car 2 weeks ago and whilst there gave the engine bay a good going over with some gunk and a paint brush, engine should have gone in Friday I will know tomorrow. Also the coilovers and all four new strut braces should be on tomorrow

I may see you next week, need to put some miles on the engine before the 5th April.

Bryan
