My pennies worth: I've never really been a fan of the multiple guage pods, as I find that overhanging lip looks a bit OTT. Now if they were in a pod that looked more like the non-STI bonnet scoop (ie. no lip) I'd be more inclined to fit one. So I prefer A-pillar mounted guages, that lower pillar guage pod looks great - but might be a bit hard too see if you have bad eyesight!

I suppose it all depends on how many guages you intend to fit!

Hi Taff i bought the pod first and scoobyclinic fitted it for me with the gauges, but now they do the same pods, this is a newer pic...

By the way the one austenwrx is making looks great
