    Hello. I didn’t see anything about fitting these two together so I thought I’d share what I did. There are two problems
    1. The gauges aren’t deep enough for the pods. I hade to grind about a 1/16 off the face. Then instead of the plastic backing plates cravenspeed suplied I cut and ground the metal ones that came with the gauges.
    2. The gauge bezels are huge and won’t clear the pod the mount bolt. I ended up sanding the bezel a tiny bit and filing the mount down.

    Now I just need to add a little paint I’m done!

    I was having fitment issues with my gauge and flex pod as well so I put them aside for another day. I might follow what you’ve done and see where that gets me. Thanks for sharing.

    Old post I know, but do these gauges block your view of the factory gauges?

    Yes, I have to peer around it to check for CIL's or traction.

    I can see more from my view, but this view is straight on showing maximum coverage (was also the only one I could find in my photos)

    That is a deal breaker for me. I wish they would spread the mounts out more for the 3rd gens so we can see our other gauges.
