How are you fitting them? centre pod or din or A-pillar?

Where did you all get your pods from?

I'm after a centre pod, preferably a defi style one.

If you are using centre pods, how well do they match the dash?

Also what size gauges are you using, 60 or 52mm?

Thanks guys.

I`ve bought a triple gauge pod to mount on the A-pillar. It`ll need trimming to shape but looks great in Carbon effect. Im also using 52mm gauges as I felt the 60mm were slightly too big, but obviously personal taste
