P.S. I lied, I split a boost hose to the actuator, and the KS3 screamed "Stop", so I did....

I'm in the same situation, I've got a 60mm Blitz boost gauge and I want a single pillar mount gauge pod for my Classic

all I can find is generic ones on eBay, which may not fit very well

I'm sure you could buy a cheap 52mm gauge pod and file the hole out to take a 60mm gauge without too much agro

It's worth a punt when you can get a 52mm single pod for 16quid

I had a single pod A pillar trim from Nomad Racing, the finish was quite good but the fit was not fantastic and the top mounting is a screw and wall plug arrangement which is covered by a protruding grey cover.

The trim cracked around the screw point which is why I am looking for a suitable single pod for my car.

I've had two and not had any cracking. I've noticed in the impreza, it is best to cut away the old a pillar trim, rather than replace over the top, on the nomads that is.

The type I had was a complete A pillar trim which incorporates the pod as it is built/moulded into the trim.

Sorry to jump in but I'm looking to make a mount for my defis and as I bought 2nd hand I only got two original crappy dash mount pods with the 3 gauges I bought. I'm looking for a third, it looks like this



if anyone has one lying around - don't see many people using them.
