2. Insert the custom gauge pod mount into the open vent slot.

💬 Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this fit my gauge?
A: If your gauge is a standard 52mm or 45mm, yes! However, due to differences between brands, a snug or loose fit may occur. Adjustments are easy with sanding or electrical tape.

Q: Does this damage my dashboard or require cutting?
A: Not at all. Our gauge pod mounts use the OEM vent location and require no drilling or cutting.

Q: Is it really OEM-looking?
A: Yes! Each pod is sanded and painted for a near-factory texture and tone. While minor layer lines may still be visible due to the 3D printing process, these pods are designed to blend in beautifully with your interior.

⚠️ What to Expect with 3D Printed Parts

While we work hard to provide the highest quality possible, 3D printing does have some natural limitations:

• Light layer lines may be visible beneath paint

• The inside opening of the pod may not be perfectly rectangular due to support structures

• Paint wear can occur with repeated pod removal and installation

• Minor dimples may appear on the bottom or underside of the mount

These cosmetic variances do not affect function or fitment and are standard with hand-finished, small-batch printed parts.

🎨 Custom Options & Quality Guarantee

Each pod and mount is hand-prepped in small batches to ensure consistent fit, finish, and durability. If you're looking for custom paint options or additional gauge configurations, feel free to contact us directly.
