Sideways

I bought a pod for my 52mm Defi gauges from a well known Subaru specialist and the finish was really bad so I returned it and they replaced it with their " best on shelf " . The finish wasn't too special either but I thought I was being picky so I decided to fit it and see what it looked like. Well ****e is the only word that springs to mind, my mate pissed himself laughing and said " you paid £80 for that ". Its got a groove round the left and doesn't even fit in the hole properly. ( its an STi 8 so its the hole that the clock pod goes in.)
I now don't know what to do can anyone advise me where they bought a DECENT pod from ? I think I'll get my money back for it. I would have bought a Defi original but they only make them in 60mm

Also can anyone advise me where to take the water temp from I only have one hole in the block, will I need to get a T piece for the top radiator hose ?

Cheers

Why didn't you but the 60mm gauges?

Sideways

Umm let me guess, cause I have 52mm ones
IMHO the 60mm look too big anyway.

Brun

Spelling error Replace the but with buy in my first post
IMHO the 52mm look too small

Sideways

Lol

Jas,

In fairness I don't think I was the mate that pissed himself when I saw the pod, although I normally do, lol

I went around to Steve's while he was having them fitted, and all I can say is they are rubbish. I got 4 Defi OEM mounting kits if you want to try that? Two years ago, I bought some Defis and a pod, and mine are so much more superior

Hey Jason, sorry to hear you've had bother with the pod. I found this pod on eBay a while back. They come up fairly regularly and look pretty funky to me (and i'm not usually a 'carbon' person). With the exchange rate they don't work out too expensive either. Unfortunately i do not have a MY00-04 to put one in.

Water temperature wise i got this t-piece from Demon Tweeks and fitted it into the top rad hose like this...



I hope some of the crap above is of use to you mate.
