      Anyone have a picture of the BMP pod installed? Looks like it would stick the gauges out a little more. Might be easier for viewing. $90 is hard to swallow though.

                      just be forewarned that the center console/ash tray are not great places for gauges, visually. the ash tray gauges are blocked by the shifter most of the time, and in either location you have to look down and away from the road to see them. if you are doing this for a track car, the center vents, a-pillar or custom mount on top of the dash are best.

                          Never have seen one I would consider mounting in my car. I have a Zender 3 pod that goes on the dash. Much like the old taxi unit audi's had.
