Question Defi-Link Meter BF Installation Options

I ordered several Defi-Link Meter BF series gauges (EGT, Water Temp, and Turbo) along with the Defi-Link Control Unit II. I'm debating on where to install and was interested to see if anyone has some installation photos to share. Most of the pods that I have seen are only for the 52mm gauges. I've looked at the Flyrx7's Pod Works but am not sure if I'd like a row of three 60mm gauges sitting in the middle of the dash.

Hey,

I'm planning on ordering the BF series too soon since the Apexi ones I just bought were wrong model/not as described...I'll exchange 'em. Anyhow, I have read that 60mm can fit into 52mm gauge pods (a-pillar, etc) after doing some minor work on the pods...I don't think it's a tedious process from what I remember reading. I will look into this once I receive the new gauges and my buddy's new pod he just got.

Something you can look into maybe:

I have the Defi BF Series gauges. Two on the a-pillar and three in Flyrx7's pod over the center speaker grill. Looks great and clean. Don't have any pics right now, but I'm sure other people have done the same and have pics. Oh ya, 60mm gauges will fit in 52mm pods with some dremel work. Good luck.

I saw a pic of someones interior somewhere on this forum who relocated the a/c controll ***** to the center console and put the guages in their place. Looks super clean IMO.

vel525...If you could share PICs, that would be great. I'd like to see the fit after widening the 52mm pod.

I also ran across this pod for the 350Z. I'm not sure if anyone has them available for the RX7, but I like the idea of simply swapping out the pillar.
