Hi Guys.

Does anyone have, or has anybody looked at, pillar gauge holders for the VR4?

Is there anywhere in the UK that sells them for the VR4 or are they generic and can be cut down to size.

Wanting to purchase a oil pressure gauge to go with the boost gauge.
Dont want them littering my dash and feel they look better on the pillar

Cheers chaps,

Deion.

Only ones ive seen are on Ebay US.

For Mitsubishis in general... so might fight well might not.

Cheap tho'

Cheers guys. Think I might just try a generic one and see if I can get it sprayed the same colour and mould it in.

Otherwise, might see if somewhere will custom make them. If I find anywhere I'll start a new thread for a possible group buy.:2thumbsup

I remember that, that was the thread I posted after I picked up my VR-4! I think this (http://www.gaugeshop.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=1&products_id=4) is where I got mine from, not 100% sure as the picture is different to what I have but they may just show a different pic. I sprayed mine with just a grey primer and it matched the pillar pretty well. I'm deffinatly gonna redo it again at some point, when I was trimming it down I think I went a bit to far, plus it attaches by a screw which isn't exactly consealed, I was gonna have a go at attaching it and then poly filling around it, smooth it all out and then spray it.

Here, you can make out my pod in this picture, needs some work but does it's job for now.
