Gauges


#1

Working on my E30 (eventual preparation for SpecE30 racing). The car stil has some working heating and air which I am not quite ready to pull out yet. I am looking to add some auxiliary guages and was curious if any of you guys have a recommendation on either a kit or a mounting pod. I know VDO has one that goes in the center stack (near the bottom), but was curious if anyone knows of or has an idea where to get one that mounts to the top of the dash just to the right of the main instrument cluster.


#2

A friend of mine has a simple 3-gauge pod atop the center vents in his e30. I think it’s what I’m going to use – I don’t think that occupying the center vent is a reasonable option for a dual-purpose car.

The basic 2 & 3 guage pods are shown here for $18 and $22:

I’ve found them cheaper, but I can’t remember the site.
