Hey chXFS,

I installed my Gauges about two weeks ago but I forgot to post pic's. I have to say that I love them.. So much information at your finger tips. This project came together well.

So are you a transplant to the area? Otherwise you must be really tough to have made it this long. Does your wife wear any Cowboys swag around town? If so, she's definitely tough. Philly fans are crazy.

Transplant... Hummmmm! Yes but not from the Bay.. Originally from Georgia, but Uncle Sam had me spend a very long time in the Bay during my service days. The rest was history as they say.. BTW, that when I first fell in love with Jaguar..My CO had an (R) and a Range Rover.

That makes sense. And the military pays better than I thought! An R and an RR! That's some serious coin.

Military Pay wasn't that bad depending on your rank and your ability not to have a bunch of kids and also having a deep pocket daddy... LOL... Anyway, His S-type-R was black on black.. A real head turner..

Some mfg's are very standardized, and communications are very straight forward. Some like Subaru are completed messed up and we actually have to buy a car to figure it out.

We are located in North Ridgeville, Oh. If you can find anyone interested from your forums let me know. I'll ask around but I don't know any owners off-hand.)

This is huge and the gauge is sick!!!! So come on OH we are counting on you. Here is a link to there site and a video of it in action.

Now the next thing is how do we mount this without it looking like a racecar and keep it classy. Well, i have been chatting with a member on another forum and have sent him pics. He got back to me and as long as the vent is removable he can do it. Here are a few pics of his work.

Does anyone know if the vent can be removed? I assume it can cause I found it in a parts catalog. And would it be easy to get to? Im gonna go through with the Pod, But Im really hoping we can get this gauge.
where can I buy these pods

Is there a reason why using a wireless OBD2 scanner and your phone with the appropriate software is not an appropriate and easy solution? It’s been so long I can’t even remember what app I used to verify all the different measurements, but it wasn’t expensive and I had maybe $25 invested. I’ll look in my old phone to see if the app is still there and edit this response.

Hello Carl,
The pods are still available but you can only order them on Facebook. The guy who makes them
bases his business on Facebook.. You will need to order a spare vent and send him your original.
Becareful removing the vent as the plastic clips that hold it in place can easily break.

The guy who does them is named Ben,
His Business name is: Block8Head custom Vent Pods
His Email is: xxredline9xx@aol.com

Note: Some of the information is old and he may have updated his stuff.

Hope that helps .
