i also have one, and only thing i will tell you is if you decide to buy one it takes some time to get used to looking around the pod to check your gas level. lol other then that its not bad at all.

Here you go - hope these help.

Overall I'm happy with it and I would buy it again. I definitely prefer having my gauges on the steering column rather than up on the pillar.

However, I did notice that the left pod bay (the one that is currently unoccupied) makes a slight rattling noise at certain RPMs. My wideband is going into that pod bay in a couple of weeks so I never bothered to try and fix it. Also, it does look a bit goofy with an empty bay since you can see through the empty hole down into the steering column. You could install the pod mounting bracket to make the hole smaller, but it would still be there. My 2 cents!

oh also be prepared that you will constantly be having to tighten up the lil joints that hold up the gauge. i remember on numerous times that while hitting full boost one of them would fall over. it was funny but it gets annoying as hell.

It's good to see that you do have a sense of humor.

It's a bit shinier than the stock material - noticably different - but in reality it's not that dramatic. It's the kind of thing an observer wouldn't notice unless you pointed it out. I think the perceived difference in materials from the pictures is deceptive because of the camera flash.

What about some loctite or superglue?
