defi bf FTW!

or for gauges that actually match the dials during the day and night...and are only £20 each...get the autogauge gradational series from halfrauds!

the defi ones do match

i thought during the day they're a smoked front? i know they illuminated red, but they dont have a white face do they?

 

[kez]

true, but the red matches the red of the dials

everyone who's seen them thinks they're OEM

I just bought the autogauge ones, and whilst I like the boost gauge, the oil temp gauge is just a bit noddy... its got a weird scale which doesn't fit with a positioning of the needle (off-centre).

What do you think of these? (in red obviously)

Hey all am fairly new to the site, been reading all yr posts, dasmith83 good advice n pics, just got a nomad pillar pod and halfords gauges, Defi look good but not worth the ££££, found some 52 mm Defis, http://www.msport.co.uk/acatalog/Defi_and_ALFiT_Link_Meter_52Mm.html

I've used a FK single-gauge pod for my boost gauge, covered it in eco leather:

Did anyone notice their gauge pod not fitting at the correct angle to view? My FK pod pointed the gauge face somehow upwards and towards the right (passenger side, we have left hand drive cars) so while looking straight in the dash gauges it was not comfortable viewing the boost gauge at the same time. I carved a bit the edges of the pod, fitted the gauge about 0.5cm outwards, slightly turned towards the pillar... now it's far easier to glance
