ordered it last night so i cant tell you how good they are yet.

 

[cupragav]

what size would the one i have be if it is bigger than normal?

 

[cupra_brown]

on the nomad pillar , they do 52mm and 60mm.
as you said yours is bigger, i would guess at 60mm is the larger size!

 

[cupragav]

yeah think thats what it is, i would keep it but strugglin to find one that matches in that size

yup i just had a quick look and 60mm gauges do seem like rocking horse ****

 

[RikH]

you have to specify if you want it bored to 60mm
this is only for defi gauges really

I got my Nomad dual pod pillar about 3 months ago, and they don't come with velcro anymore, they have a screw fixing at the top.

It is a little unsightly, but you don't notice after a while...I read about cutting one of the original mounts from the OE pillar & attaching it to the Nomad so you can use the OE plastic clips, so may give that a go, but will be a pain as everything is now plumbed in...would suggest people do it before they install!!!

i asked for velcro as well from martyn
got that and screw

 

[cupra_brown]

got mine today.
yes no velcro... but a screw. Think i will have go at reusing the clips if it is possible!
Got my gauge today also...........i am so embarrased....i have ordered the wrong one! doh!

 

[cupra_brown]

kept me busy for a few hours........
