There was a group buy on here a while back for xyber, a lot of people have them including me and they are the same prosport stepper gauges that's on that site as far as I'm aware

Either a sandwich plate adaptor from them or engine plug/adaptor, which IRCC they dont sell. Also the vacum hose they supply iplasticky & a bit flimsy, better to replace it with a thicker rubber type one.

You'll need either a sandwich plate or a kit you can get which taps off all pressure sensor and plugs in above cylinder 3.
Had no problems with xyber, thought they were very good. Can't comment on the hids

I've just done the prosports too, the ones on that site are the ones. Though I ended up getting the 60mm ones directly from the American prosport site for about 250 quid a think, and got a mate to post them, the 60mm ones are easier to see I find.....but then I'm getting a bit rusty in vision the closer I get to 30 hehe

ATI/defi pod is the best quality centre/clock pod in my opinion. Great fit and colour to dash match is spot on

I got the 60mm which don't come in green, planned to have White in the day red at nite, but if you have lights in in low light or rain I find them too hard to see so I have them White at both day and nite.
I got a mate in us to post them over for me, but if you go to prosports website just go right through the ordering process as though you're buying them and it does an international shipping option, the just stick that in XE.com for the up to date exchange rate. If I remember rightly though you can only use paypal to order if you're outside us

£12 is fine not worried about that, Can you post up some pic's of the 60mm please,

I don't know weather to get 60mm or 52mm green,

Does the white look ok at night against the speedo etc?

Well I was gonna go with green cos I've got a wrx too, but then I thought sod it, cos they're seperate gauges away from my dash anyway so though red might look alright. Plus I ended up with them on White all the time anyway. They aren't as bright as I was worries they'd be at nite, thought they'd be intrusive but they're fine and the ati pod has a good surround that keeps the light in at nite and the sun away in the day.
I'll do a piccy tomorrow, just tried and the dark and flag make it look ****e
