    Default 3x gauge holder for VX Berlina

    Hi guys,
    I have a VX Berlina & I was wondering if anyone could tell me where to get a 3 gauge holder from.....I want it to sit under the single din dvd player I have...(it was a double din)....I want to be able to fit it in where I have the plastic pocket currently.

    Your help will be most appreciated, weather it be links on where to by or just info.

    Rob

    No probs. I have been looking at them, myself. Better looking to have some gauges there than just a pocket.

    All you need is a piece of stainless/aluminium and use a holesaw to cut 3 perfectly gapped holes.... That's how mine was done.

    i brought one of those metal ones from ebay, they are too thin in my opinion and dont fit flush. i ended up spending $40 and used a piece of aluminium cheq plate with two 52mm holes.

    It seems to more or less click in place. You have to kinda bend it to pull it back out.
