Pretty neat placement for the Control Unit II. The gauge looks to be a bit too high though for the size since the clock is way smaller than the Defi 60mm. Have you guys thought about building a triple gauge pod along the same lines, but lowering it down?

Very nice. Thats only for the 2003-2004's though, since the 2005-2006 have the clock integrated with the climate control display. If they made something like that for the 2005-2006, I would be on it in a heartbeat!
