The ebay link only shows the pod. What sort of gauges would you get? What size, 52mm or 60mm?

If you buy gauges new, from a reputable delaer, they come with sensors and fitting instructions. The Oil TEMPERATURE gauge MAY need an adaptor, my Defi one did, but the adaptor was only £8.

Have a alook at this:



Defi oil temp, boost and oil pressure, in a Scoobymania pod, all 60mm, with Defi control box fitted in place of the (fake) cupholder. '98 UK car.

Fit and finish of pod is superb, it was £80.
