Ref the angle thing - IME, on my Saph in centre vent position they are not that clear / sharp.

I tilt mine down slightly and they are spot on.

Graham Still (as in GRS Intercoolers) sells these guages too, and his look spot on in his Mini. They are mounted low in the dash, like Trev plans. Looking down on them, or straight at them is fine.

Looking up at them is RUBBISH!

they are great when they work but the sensors and LED's can let them down a bit.
