I've got a 52mm gauge pod for my AFR, and it hasn't come with anything to fix the pod to the gauge! So what have you guys done to fix the gauge in place?

Mine come with double sided tape, tepe around the gauge, then force it in the pod, ou won't be able to put tape all the way around though. Audi s4 b5 - 470bhp & 486ft lbs

Yeah to be honest i think i will mount them to the steering column cowling. So it would be hard for them to fall out anyways. A bit double sided tape should be fine to stop them rattling about. My build thread: http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vt&tid=454802

I used tape on mine, and it never came loose. Its seems a bit of a bodge but it works. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

gauges on the column will obscure your clocks if you are using standard ones On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:
