I just got one of those cheap 3 gauge pod mount things that are single din slot size. Fits under my single din stereo a treat.

Havent got no pics though - soz.

Oooh, something else has just occurred to me!

If you get a black plastic video case, the larger/older ones, cut off one side and file 2 the 2 corners on one the the longer edges to the contours of a 5p coin, it fis bang on in the centre panel right up to the edge so it can be fixed with hex bolts etc. Should be able to fit upto 6 gauges in that no probs

This is my old one:



not sure wheather thats a 52mm though may be a 48mm.

lol if you've got an autogauge then ditch it, i was running 19psi and it said 12psi

yeh you can have problems with some of the cheap gauges, i had to send my oil temp sensor one back as it was claiming my cars oil temp was about 150 degrees centigrade! got a replacement and it worked fine. Although a dodgey earth can also cause many problems!
