You're right mate. It's got to fit right hasn't it.

How does the standard one attach to the car?

Out of interest, I'd put a boost guage in one slot in the a-pillar, what's other gauge could be put in the other one? What other information is vital?

I can see how that information might be useful.

In fact I can see now why you might need more than two slots in the a-pillar.

Are there any other options to combine some of these gauges into one unit? i.e. a little box of electronics which has all this info and alarts when thresholds are reached?

The maximum gauges I'd want is two. And I'm still debating it. I think I might consider losing the clock, installing a boost gauge there and getting a small box of tricks to do the rest.

my a pillar pod is a GReedy and the fitment is terrible i can get hold of signle gauge holders the are alloy/chrome over here in cyprus im goin to me mates shop tonight so ill get a picture of one and try and find some in a car, they do actually look rather racey/tuner car if that makes any sense, ive got oil pressure and water temp. (ex MKiii owner im parranoid now) but i might change my mechanicle gauges for some ones i seen in australia called saber, much like the defi ones but half the price got some family in Aust that use these in the V8 holden and they swear by them
