My a pillar pods did not look right and could not get a snug fit.So went on the hunt for something different to house my guages and found this beauty.Not seen a classic with this fitted before.

****** :(

Looks good thought :thumb:

*Tip for gauge fitting*
Cut the hole very slightly larger and then wrap masking tape round the gauge where it sits in the hole.
That way you get the best fit and the masking tape will take up and iregularities in the hole and stop you scratching the back of the gauge.

Must be masking tape!! Insulation tape goes soft when it gets hot and slides about.
