Default ecs B6 vent gauge worth it?

do you think the ecs vent gauge is worth the 250$? i mean it is a really clean install and also the tint of the light matches the rest of dash. it does seem a little over priced but i think it may be worth it, whaat do you think??

I was searching the web trying to find a decent priced gauge myself as I want the vented VDO that will still have usable air flow out the vent. I came across this one site that has it for $160. The site says you can choose to have it VDO or autometer and you can also choose for black or white face w/ the back lit in red (readings). They custom make them then ship. I tried to check out the item, but when it went to the next page the server said that they were not accepting payments at this time (paypal). They have a number to call if choose. But for $160 it is a fabulous deal.

or you can just DIY. all it really is, is a gauge mounted into an airvent that has been cut to fit the gauge. so just cut the airvent and stick the gauge in and voila, centervent gauge for the price of the gauge

i love my PODi... PM McHammered... OEM fit and finish... even the dealer asked if it was an OEM part... and the blocking of the speedo has NEVER bothered me and i didnt order it for a long time for that reason... its inline with your other gauges, no looking away...




Iwould alsoadd great after sale service, support and help on install, i broke a part and he sent it for free and it matches the OEM aluminum bezels andgaugefaces
