I wrote podi about gauge solutions for the mk5.

In late February we are going to get this! Well, this is the beta pre-production. But you get the idea. Podi makes some great product.

He emailed me back. I has more info. Note that the gauges shown are the non-color matched ones.

"The gauges for the Mk5 will be VW blue with a red needle and silver bezel. A matte black bezel will be included for each gauge in the package if the customer wishes to swap them on.

The gauge pod is color and texture matched to the VW steering column for a perfect OEM look. Someone said Newsouth makes a pod, well they do and their unit STICKS on top of your OEM column cover, ours replaces the OEM cover entirely and uses the OEM mounting location and clips for a perfect factory fit.

The gauge package will include either VEI digital gauges or my new analog electronic stepper motor based gauges. All senders except for the air/fuel ratio controller will be included in the package.

Price? I won't know until I get all of the components landed into the USA."

looks like its made out of better materials than the newsouth and it'll mount up way better...but two gauges is too much for me. I can deal with my one newsouth, but with two, id never know how fast I was going...I'd be too distracted lol

if they made a single pod that replaces that top piece on the steering column, I may consider it.

EGT, Oil Pressure, Oil Temp, AFR, Boost, and a gauge that has the V1 radar detector in it. :thumbsup:


Late Feb is the release.

Hmm...which ones are the most important? Damn I gotta fish for my OEM Vent cover then if I want to replace my OSIR, haha.

Valid point, lmao.

"Sir, do you know how fast you were going?"

"Uhh...no, but I do know I was boosting 22PSI and my AFR is a little off!"
