Default gauge pods

ive been lookin round the net tryin to find gauge pod for my s2. atm, ive got the triple one that replaces the centre vents. its the metal one with rs turbo on it but the previous owner has cut away part which goes round the heater controls so it dont fit very well
ive tried lookin for the plastic one that goes here but only found it on nomad and theres no price. im wondering if i would rather have the vents in the middle coz in summer wont the car be alot hotter inside with 2 less vents?

whats everyone else done? anyone know where u can buy the pillar pods that have the whole pillar strip in that light grey colour?
anyone got one they wana sell? cheers

cheers fella!

EssexMikeSi

my screen surround was done by someone else but twins modified it for me!

he does stuff for people!

he s done loads for me!

if you want one i could lend him mine as my car is in bits again so he can make another buy you ll have to pm and sort it!

its designed for an alpine screen to fit without the cage or surround!

but i dont see why it cant be made to fit any stereo!
