Cheers Tony even if i can get a template made up i should be able to get one made up

adit has one with three gauges in it,,,i saw it on sunday he was selling it,,
with other nice items but tooooo close to xmas for many i think as he never sold it.
not sure if it's excactly what you need?

i've got a couple of the three-guage (oil temp, oil pressure, volts) pods for sale, although not with e30 specific housing. some zoners simply cut holes in the back of the centre console and mount the guages like that, or modify/manufacture a simple wooden/tin plate housing. p.s. cheers mike

any pics and prices Adit ? is it audi coupe ones ?

Pic of them cut into the console

cheers eko. look smart, eh? you have pm jb

is that the Audi gauges you've used there Tony ? my old man reckons he should have them in the garage but hes not sure that's whats got me on this subject. I'm wanting to get a set in and working for the car going on the road

Audi ones mate

that does look nice,,,,how many you got mr T ??

what sensors did you use Tony ? looks good btw I've read about using a t piece for the oil sensors but what sensors do you use? i take it the one that does pressure puts the light out in the dash or do you need to keep the original bmw one and add an extra 2 ( temp and pressure )

a fitting guide will be good here,,i'm also in to some of these,,parts needed and a bit of knowledge
off someone who's done it would be a real help ,,

Never got any senders with mine so only the voltmeter and lights got wired up

If you look on Ebay under e30 325i,some ones selling the fitting (Engine) to put a Capillary Oil Gauge on,I am at work and cannot get on Ebay here to give one the Item number

I may be interested in selling mine, a Kos special. With senders, 60 for the lot.

pm on its way

bump for jbh

I do indeed have one of these, But it's currently with Essexboy as he was looking to get one made.

Mine got a little bent after my dog knocked it off of the bench in the garage and I stepped on it It's not too bad tbh and I'll be able to repair it.

i would of thought that you would need to use vdo senders considering that they are a vdo gauge. Im going to use an adaptor that ive found off the internet and use that so i can still keep the standard warning light when i do an m50 conversion.

Has anybody got any pictures of Kos's design?
