Post pics of your boost gauge

**BASARAB** · 04-14-2010 09:19 PM

I wanna get a boost gauge, but cant decide which one to choose, since gauge might look different installed compare to when you see it just by itself

**B6JoeS4** · 04-14-2010 09:38 PM

get a Podi

)

What about a-pillar gauges and tilted to the left?

**greg@podi.ca** · 04-15-2010 08:07 AM

If you want a vent solution get the AWE package as it is the best, but if you wanted steering column solution let me know and I'll answer any questions you might have.

+1 for Podi. I love mine and with a bit of color matching magic at Home Depot it looks stock with a non-black interior. I'll snap some photos this afternoon after work and tonight to give a day/night comparison and update this post.

Everyone asks if it was stock then says it looks good

**spector** · 04-15-2010 09:42 AM

Daytime:

Night:

Unfortunately, I was getting my car detailed last week and the guys left some type of solvent on my gauge and it turned the black casing BRIGHT GOLD. I have no idea wtf chemical did that, but I kind of hate it.

Nice work! Did you paint the whole plastic cover or just the housing you mounted the gauge inside?

I painted the gauge housing and the dash trim piece.
Here's a link to the original post.

EDIT: My bad, didn't scroll far enough to see you'd posted the thread, thx anyway. Still love this setup.

I vaguely remember seeing a thread about this setup somewhere? (assuming it was yours)

Is this totally custom or did you piece it together? Looks awesome. Very low profile, I like it.

Anyone on here use the VDO boost gauge in a steering pod?
I quite like the VDO look.
I'm waiting for the P2 so I can have Oil pressure and Boost

VDO boost gauge will not fit in my pod as the brass fitting off the back of it is very long and does not clear the back of the pod.

stevo and rlb6 what kind of gauges are those? And where can I get them? They look more stealth than anything else I have seen

just went to a local fabric store and picked it out. then wrapped all the trim in it following the a4mods write up. it wasnt easy but the results were great

**itsmatt33** · 04-15-2010 08:43 PM

prosport mechanical boost gauge:

I can control the brightness by pressing the + and - buttons below the coolant gauge (i spliced the power wire of the gauge into the wire for the headlight control)
lower brightness:

highest brightness:

I like the offset to the left. Ever consider changing the bulb to a red one to match the dash?
