My pleasure Ed. If you go this route do not bother with the OEM pod, the standard black will prep up better for you and the $8 can go towards the dye.

I'm going to order one, thats even before I have my 951 to put it in! I'll keep it in the garage as a motivator to finish fixing up my '44 and get it traded up to its big brother with boost.

On that note, if you see or know of a good 951 thats black/black and has the goodies, PM me. I'm expecting the car will either be from someone on here, or maybe a "friend of a friend" when I'm at the track this summer.

Ed,
Yes they are SPA Design gauges. I didn't pay quite that much for them but it was north of $200 each. They are dual gauges, the one closest to the windshield displays oil and water temp, the one closest to the driver displays boost pressure and air temperature. The digital readout is nice and easy to read, although some may prefer a regular analog dial. The backlight on them is either green or red and can be dimmed. I like em, and when you consider that each is 2 nice electronic gauges, the price wasn't all that bad. Some will disagree. If you get these, you will need to drill small holes in the pillar to accept the peak/hold Function buttons, no big deal.
I found the best deal on them at www.bimmerforums.com - their online store carries the whole line. Only issue I had with them is the goofy BSPT boost sensor. (British standard pipe thread, try finding a fitting for that in the states.)
HTH

Edit: not bimmerforums online store, www.bimmerworld.com

Bjorn: Trust me, i tackled these guys for a whole week, they informed me that they never give more than $5 on a GB for 15+ (which i don't believe).

Now i got a $10 for 10+ (i even told then this GB may go up for 30 people), still they can't give a better price sorry
