The one for the bottom of the A-pillar. How have you secured it in place?

I used double sided velcro and that did the job, a bit of silicon should be ok as well.

I had the same problem. First I fitted some black edging strip around the bottom edge of the pod so that it didn't scuff the dash. Then I used 2 long cable ties and wrapped one around the gauge body, took the tail of the tie and added another to extend it. The second tie was pushed down past the A pillar and clamped by the bonnet release catch. This holds the pod down securely without any messy glue. Works fine for me!

Do you guys know if that pod will fit a MY97? we have the b*st*rd lip that curves round the dash just where you want to put one!

I used double sided body trim tape, as it was the only stuff I could find where the glue didn't dry out or go soft in direct sunlight. Had two attempts, because the first time got fingerprints on the tape and then it didn't stay stuck for long.
