I was looking at the pic on my phone. Still am. Spotted the monkey but no price. Oops

LOL, meant the money bone web addie... I think Kyle mentioned price some posts back?

Cost me around £130 including shipping? long time ago now..

He was down to his last few when I got mine as he had a new 3 pod dash-top pod in development...not seen any sign of it since though.

Give Cory an email and see if he has any left, or even show you the new pod (if it's finished)

Cheers. Have you installed it ?

Yes the picture above (with the DEFI's) is of my car

Looks great. Defi's aren't cheap though . Quality kit !!

I tried the "cheaper" option... With R-Spec gauges... but they were in-accurate and flipping annoying due to the audio alarm on the symphony start up... where the Defi's ooze quality..and yes they were expensive but they will still be worth money to someone when I change the car in 12 months.

Anybody interested in this again? Been trying to find some options from the UK but there just doesn't seem to be anything available. Problem with this is the FedEx shipping charges are more than the actual pod, so if a few of us wanted one we could get it shipped to one Uk address and split the costs. Pod is $80 and shipping $90... so even split 3 ways makes a big difference (£67 inc shipping, but i guess tax may come too)

Yep count me in!

Just made a holder for Kris's car from the original panel I had spare from my car, so far so good, just needs a couple of tweeks and the job is sorted

Will Post pictures when complete & costs are very minimal

After another Busy night in the workshop..... SUCCESS .... Gauges are installed and looking very smart in Kris's car.

BIG THANKS To Kris for being the Guinea pig and allowing me to use his car & traveling up to meet me this evening.

all bar the slight hiccup with the plugs ending up the wrong way round on the gauges and a bit of head scratching as to why they worked very strange we got there. just a minor thing very late at night & tired

Pics to follow

I'd like to say a massive thanks to Rob. I know he has been working hard on this project for some time (he loves a challenge) and I am delighted with the results.

The gauges look and work a treat. There may have been a few head scratching moments and at one point I thought I was going home with some gauges that looked nice but didn't work properly. As always, Rob came up trumps and got it all sorted!!

The trip up to Rob's was certainly worth it and I am a happy guinea pig haha. I learnt a few things about my car too !!

I will take some more pics tomorrow.

My mate has just had one of these delivered. He wanted to make some carbon moulds from it. I think he has gone off the idea now.

He is looking to sell it. It is brand new in the box and comes with fitting instructions.

He paid £105 (£85 posted and £20 customs charges.

He is selling for £85. I can get it from him later and take pics if anyone is interested.

PM if you have any questions.
