No need for a list anymore, I had enough response to be able to offer this price to ANYONE!
YOU CAN STILL ORDER AND GET THIS GREAT PRICE EVEN IF YOU AREN'T ON THE LIST!
I will add you to your name to my database in the order that payment is received. You can send me a message and I can tell your your spot in line.
Here is the first 53 that reserved a spot, and their payment status... please pay if you are on the list, and please pay to get on the list.
This is just the public list from the groupbuy... orders places from now on just go into my private list.
Here is the gauge pod I have created for the 335
Get yourself on the list for the first batch!
"full kit" includes VEI system digital guage (the best, period, NEW high rez (0.1 resolution) model with lots of features) , fittings, tubes, etc... ( kits may get backordered if VEI cant keep up :D ) or the STRI X-Line gauge, which matches the interior lighting perfectly, but has no special features.
The vei gauge is NORMALLY 129 by itself, but I am hoping to get quanitity/dealer pricing.
STRI X-line kit will be $259

Just a note guys, this is my pre-production unit... the final one will be better... a tad less "bulky" ... have the same shape, lines, and color, but will fit better, and won't have any gaps at all... the bottom edges that touch the dash will be a bit more "razor edged" on the final peice... its hard to get that with fabbing... so it will be done in the computer.
this was the 100% hand made version, the final peice will be slightly smaller, and better. I should be ready to start shipping the final units in 3-5 weeks.

Notice on the outside shots it is not tilted back, so light from the windsheild doesnt bother it really

The cigarette lighter backlight is an easy source, and the one that my install instructions will use. I have been using it for a few weeks now, perfect dimming, etc.

this one is for the pod only, I delayed all the other stuff because everyone wanted me to get this released!
Mr. 5's thread has a place to get everything you need
It WILL come with instructions

a gauge will not fit in the vent unless you perminently modify the vent, or the dash. I tried, a lot... :D Its too short
The last gauge pod I did for a corrado g60 was a vent gauge, so that was my obvious first choice

Just a note guys, this is my pre-production unit... the final one will have the same shape, lines, and color, but will fit better, and won't have any gaps at all. Since the unit pictured is the one that is 100% hand made, its hard to get the sharp lines needed to be flush with the dash. The final unit will be FLUSH :thumbsup:
The unit that fits better is at the laser-prototyping company to get digitized, its basically the same thing, just a bit "tighter"
Not that anyone was complaining about this one... I will get day photos tomorrow

I can get you the gauge at my cost, with the full kit, just add -kit after your name
This is the only place to buy the pod, unless you want me to sell you a prototype for like $400-600 bucks... because it costs me a ton to make a prototype compared to the mass produced version that is coming soon

RiXst3r how does that gauge that you are selling look at night? I was thinking of doing the same gauge as Mr.5 because it matches the gauges in the car but I like the features of the gauge you are selling.

honestly, I have only run it in the daytime. It has a dimmer... with adjustable brightness.
I beleive O-Cha and eugen both have this same gauge, maybe they can chime in

it goes into the pilar, if you open the driver door, the side panel of the dash pops off, and you have easy access to everything, and can pop it right up into the pod
Install instructions will be posted when the time comes, and also included in the package
as far as a picture of the side... the side that goes against the pilar is completely hollow. the other side of this is just an empty cavity...
Here is a pic from when I was fabricating.... you can see that the oppisite side is wide open... it actually snugs itself between the window and the pilar cover nicely

the gauge alone is 129 if you were to buy it seperate, so its 299 for the full kit (which is 10 bucks off retail price of the gauge plus $180 for the pod)
Not to mention the kit will come with all the other goodies for install, the retail gauge comes with nothing
pod - 180
kit - 299

Any pics with the gauge turned on? Also where does one route the cables/vacuum lines? Does the vac/boost sender unit sit inside the engine compartment or the cabin? Does the gauge have peak boost recall function?
Thank you! :)

yes, it has peak recall
your requested pics will be coming soon...

for the gauge
it is THE BEST digital gauge, PERIOD... very accurate, and can calibrate for your elevation
The side panel pops off the dash very easy, and you can tuck the wires right up into the pilar and pop them out into the pod

When do you pull the trigger ? IMO it would be better to start when you have ten more instead of waiting to get 50. When the product is good, what I expect, you could be on the market very soon and sell them like pancakes.

It's fine at night. The color of the VEI gauge does not match exactly the color of the OEM gauges. It looks good though. The VEI gauge is a very good electronic vac/boost gauge providing every function I want for a good price. You can get better color matching 52mm boost gauges which will also fit in this pod, but they probably will not provide the functions of the VEI.

While the VEI gauge has more capabilities, I think ill still go with the STRI gauge, since it matches better. As long as I can see what the boost is around ill be happy.

I am trying to get the STRI gauge in quantity as well... so that people could choose between the 2 in the kit version
it would be a bit cheaper too

Go ahead and sign up for the kit version if you want the STRI gauge, I can always buy them as needed until i get dealer status, When the time comes to take payments, you will be able to select the VEI or the STRI
I mainly want to get my STRI gauge here first and take pics with it

well, not getting 50 wont slow me down until it comes to actually start stamping them out, boxing them up, etc... because I need that many people to order all the parts I will need in large enough quantities to get discounts and pass the savings on to you guys
Basically, as long as we get past 50 people by the end of next week, there will be no delays in the 3-4 weeks til full production goal.

This boost gauge is for a VW MKV GTI/GLI. My friend has it in his car, and it looks awesome. It doesnt look like alot of the gauges out there that look out of place. Yes, the air vent is pretty much obsolete with the gauge there, but I would definitely sacrifice the use of the vent for a nice gauge that does not look out of place and actually looks good.

the digital gauge is red. I will also have the option of the STRI gauge, witch is amber, but mechanical, not digital

what will the price be if some one goes with the STRI gauge?
Railgunner
02-25-2008, 10:39 PM
Could I get a little more info, I may be interested...
Do you have a link to the STRI gauge?
When you say the STRI gauge is mechanical, do you mean you have to run
a vaccum line ot it? Does this require drilling a hole thru the firewall?
How about the digital gauge? How do you get the wire thru the firewall?
Any details on how you would attach this to the dash? You mentioned Velcro, wondering what this would do to the dash over time? How the sticky stuff on the Velcro would react with the dash, etc.
Is this a DYI project for a beginner? How hard is it to get to where the sensor has to be attached?

STRI gauge, also a DIY:

Thanks for doing this Rixster. I ordered my gauge today, and the tubing that Mr. 5 recommended. Cant wait for the pod!!

Hey guys, just an update, i think i might have settled on wrapping it in a synthetic leather texture vinyl fabric that matches the grain of the dash...
more work for me... but it will be worth it

Ya, I think its a must... I can leave it a little long on the edges so it flows right onto the dash and pilar... it really gives it a finished look.. pics of that in a few days... maybe friday
Plus, it means that I can have them made more quickly, because surface texture wont matter, they will all be covered

A very inventive solution for this problem, RiXst3r. Great work getting this together.
While the pod looks good, I don't think it'll meet my needs. The problem with the pod as you've designed it is that the gauge will be visible on the windshield from the driver's seat, obstructing night vision.
Check out your evening shot:
http://www.e90post.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=131242&stc=1&d=1203902910
This picture doesn't capture what it'll be like when the gauge is lit and it's truly dark outside, but I predict a fairly severe degradation in night-time visibility on that side.
What's necessary is some fairly deep cowling, similar to that over the instrument cluster. This would also help with daytime glare, which another poster has pointed out might also be an issue (though I think a lesser one).

Ask Mr. 5 about those problems... he has had a gauge in that location for a while now... its really the only place to put one that doesnt make you take your eyes off the road... worth the tradeoffs by far in my opinion...
btw... the gauge has a dimmer... it can get VERY VERY dim... it has 9 levels of brightness, in 2 settings (day/night) for a total of 18 levels
one more thing... that picture was not taken from the drivers view... the lense was at the level of the wheel... old lady style... lol
let me see if I have a better angle...

I have discussed this with him. Check the thread. He's living with it the problem, I think.
its really the only place to put one that doesnt make you take your eyes off the road... worth the tradeoffs by far in my opinion...
I agree that the location is very, very good. I also think that if your pod were shaped to have a hood extending out over the gauge it would be a big improvement.
btw... the gauge has a dimmer... it can get VERY VERY dim... it has 9 levels of brightness, in 2 settings (day/night) for a total of 18 levels
First, I think I'd go with something more OEM looking (like the STRI X-line), so the capabilities of a particular gauge probably aren't relevant. Second, ideally I'd want the boost gauge to match the rest of the cluster in appearance and brightness.
one more thing... that picture was not taken from the drivers view... the lense was at the level of the wheel... old lady style... lol
let me see if I have a better angle...
I don't think it's gonna make much difference, that part of the windshield won't be usable for seeing out. Raising your camera 8 inches or so will actually make the reflection on the windshield larger (more round), if trivially lower.

As soon as we hit 50, I am going to open up my online order form to actually take orders. This list will become my shipping order list, and any orders after that will just be "backordered" onto the list.... I will be hand finishing these, so I will probably ship out close to 20 a week once they start shipping.
I might be able to start shipping them in as soon as 3 weeks :bulge:

Glad you are very organized with the orders, not like some "experienced" vendors here. Hopefully, you are going to get a very good feedback from the first 50, and then you can sell it to make some $profit$.
This looks very promising, the way it finished, and its OEM looks. Once you are done with us, you might as well look into the EVO market :D. Hey why not?

Will you ship to Sweden ?
will order one after you decide if ther will be a pod for 2 gauges or not, and of course ´when you know how the 2 pod will look like =)
Made a dual pod in paint =) but i gues the gauges wont fit this way ?

Dang that dual gauge looks good.....
It would just have to be wider which would go into the drivers viewing area more....

Yes, my thought exectly. And also be cover by the dashbord since 1 gauge will be located behind the revcounter, too bad =/

Guage looks pretty nice, but not really something Id like for my car. Id much rather prefer a pillar gauge set up with 2 or 3 gauges. Do you think you can fabricate something like that?

Read up on that. If you mount on the pillar you will have it stuck in your head if you ever get in an accident....

any way we can order one to house 2 gauges?
if it looks nice, i would like a 2 gauge setup also.
i am joining this thread late (so many pages in 2 days!), so
btw, why does your pod unit in pic 3 look so different than in pics 4 and 5 (see the left side of gauge pod).
thanks

if it looks nice, i would like a 2 gauge setup also.
i am joining this thread late (so many pages in 2 days!), so
btw, why does your pod unit in pic 3 look so different than in pics 4 and 5 (see the left side of gauge pod).
thanks
the dual gauge setup wont be for a while... if I end up making it at all. If only say... 20-30 people want it... its not enough to pay for my costs...
The photos look different because they are at different stages of the prototype... I am still shaping it and perfecting it... the final product will look *glorious*... :D read the last part of the first post about the pre-production photos

Where are you at with the synthetic leather texture that matches the grain of the dash. I am very eager to see who that works out. :thumbsup:

I have to slightly alter the contour (nothing noticable) for it to wrap without any seams, I am almost done, and I will post a photo probably tomorrow
The color of the leather matches perfect, but the grain is slightly too large.. I have other samples coming in as well until i get it just right

So we're at 48 really, since kpzypher wants 2 sets.
Someone want to update the list?

Hey guys, I am now an official forum vendor... (my username will update soon)...
What this means is... I can now start accepting the orders!
I will be posting info on how to sumbit your payment soon, and if you are on the list, you will get a PM from me with instructions.
The 50(or more if it goes past before I start taking orders) people on this list will become my shipping list, in the order that you see on the list. Any orders after that will just be next in line...
My goal is to keep this EXTREMELY organized, and make sure that NOBODY gets forgotten, passed up, or left out. Everyone gets an equal chance at getting in line... no tricks ;)

I say, bump the price up $20 - $40 to help cover some of the labor expended... Just a though.

I'll take two - one pod only and one full kit. Only nine more.
If kpzypher wants 2 and ferdinand wants 2 (I only see his name once on the list), then we should be OVER 50 alread!
people on this list will become my shipping list, in the order that you see on the list.
BTW, I updated the list. :rolleyes:
