Ditto, I've got a genuine Subaru pod and want to fit some gauges, was it easy to fit the gauges (are they 52mm) and it looks like you had to massage the top of the pod a little to get them to fit , would you have a close up pic of the gauges & pod in daylight please

The gauges are Autogauge bought off ebay cheap - close up below



The pod is a genuine one customised by Scoobytuner bought from the US

Took a long time to find one that could take 52mm Gauges

Very interested in the pod.
Did you have it shipped from the States and if so, what was the total cost?
Did you get stung by Customs for VAT and Duty?
Thanks

I reckon it cost about £90 with shipping and duty - don't take the shipping price from the website, I asked for the cost and got it much cheaper as I wasn't in a hurry ( Matt @ Scooby tuner was very helpful )

I've just e-mailed Scoobytuner to find out the cost of shipping, just waiting for a reply

They are Autogauge, Fitting in the Pod was simple, Connected the voltmeter and lighting via the clock wiring ( my son's a whizz with all this ), the Boost is mechanical and I needed adapters to connect it to the correct hose ( new age has no connector on the manifold )

Order:
SWIVEL HOSE TAIL1/8\" 1/4\"BSP
Code:103868 Qty:1 UnitPrice: £1.00
BRANCH TEE 1/4\" 1/4\"BSPT
Code:103983 Qty:1 UnitPrice: £0.55


From airlines-pneumatics.co.uk or Tel: 0141 882 6211

Haven't connected the oil pressure yet need LMA motorsport adapter which I haven't ordered yet - I'll post again when it's done

Backlighting is single LEDS from http://www.aceparts.com/x2364.html

Do you have the part number for the silver Subaru Single Din panel that you used under your radio, and how much was it ?


Cheers
