    Default RHD vent pod style gauge

    I wonder if I am the first one who install this type of vent pod in Australia?

    enjoy the pics:

    Looks good! I think this gauge mount is a great idea. Simple and easily removed if required.

    Did you buy via one of the group buys organised on the US forums?

    I have seen similar setups in different cards, don't know why people haven't done this before.

    Looks great

    You have raised a good question, never thought about that and I even mount the GPS/mobile next to the airbag column (just where on top of the gauge).

    I have the 3 gauge pod, and I too am yet to install it. I'm still deciding on which gauges to buy.
