Im not sure which forum this should be in...

But i need opinions between the 2 gauge autometer and lotek gauge pods for a 1g dsm. i keep hearing that the autometer fits like crap, and go for the lotek....

just need some input or maybe some opinions as to which one to get

thanks
PS: it'll be holding two 2" 1/16 gauges, EGT and boost.
 
Well, I have the Lotek (triple-pod), and while it was a PITA to install it fits fairly well. Can't give any comparison though as I've never installed one from Autometer.
 
I say

Bigger company, smaller company, who cares...
Support the one with the better product.

I can't say anything about the Lotek products, but I have seen the Autometer ones and I don't know of any fitment problems. I do know that the plastic may warp a bit here in AZ, though.

I have auto meter pod and gauges. They fit just fine. I didn't have any problems with them. Same goes for VDO they guages look cheep but they fit nice.
 
Are either one a complete replacement or are they the ones that have to be screwed onto the factory A pillar.
 
ive got the lotek 3 pod, complete replacement.

Install was like butter, I dont know how people say its tough, you drill 2 holes and place pod and put the scres in....
