I am looking to fit a 3 guage pod to my MY00, (oil temp,pressure and boost). I am leaning toward 60mm Defi guages and wondered if anyone could give me recommendations of suppliers/ installers (price would be good if you could). I notice Nitosport recommended recently, but their pod is carbon fibre, and i would like one to match my existing dash (also I assume their deal excludes fitting, which i imagine isn't cheap).

If someone could give me a recommendation, and an idea of the price I would be grateful, as I would like to install this before my wife finds out I've got a few quid hidden!

I'm sure Nito can supply a std black pod if that's what you want

Nito can fit the gauges and does do a very god job

Give them a call I'm sure they can sort you out!

Thanks for the info guys. Nito does seem to be popular, either of you know their fitting cost.

Anyone else got any views of other companies good/bad VFM etc....

Toby
Peter has already mailed me. Did you have the Defi's fitted by them (or summat else). I have seen a few fitted pods and they haven't always left a good impression either in terms of overall quality or fitting, not by J-Spec (or Nito) I hasten to add!

£6-800 is a lot of cash (to all I'm sure), and I really don't need to feel the urge to get 'physical' after i find a bodge job glued to my dash board.

PS How could you sell my clear lenses and 'cators...........

RB5 286 was gong for this and i think he said he was getting them from performance subaru or maybe scoobymania for £500.

May be worth emailing him to find out the exact supplier

OMP do two dash top guage pods finished in Black that would fit an early Scooby one takes 2 52mm guages and the other 3 52mm guages, take a look at there web site part numbers NC080 and NC079. I have one of each sat in my garage and a pile of various 52mm TIM guages all new and going cheap.
