That's incredible, here I am just a few hundred miles away and just north of the US and I have yet to receive them and yet N/Angel in Switzerland has already received them.
Ironhand, did you get send them with tracking?

Got mine today!! looks great!! what are the washers for?
I should have tracking but I have to find the receipt. I have way too many shipping forms on my desk. Ill throw it up as soon as I find it.
The washer goes in-between the vent pod and the nipple that sticks out of the bezel to help prevent rattling. The gauge pod was tight on the passenger side opening and loose on the driver side opening on mine. So I included a washer to take up any slack in the plastic trim piece.
^ok thanks!
The heat does some odd things to the dash in cars. Mine sat in the Texas sun for over 2 years so some free play had to be through in.
Got mine today.
One question, what is anyone doing when the right side of the gauge does not sit flush to the angled face of the pod? I believe you had a pic that you showed where you mention that it still needed some tweaking.
I guess depending on the model of gauge and it's bezel, the gauge itself will have to be painted black, my case the Autometers I'm using have a white body.

Got mine last Tuesday right as I was heading out for a road trip. Finally made it back home, and just finished installing the gauges.
So far I think it looks great! My only concern at the moment is that the gauges weigh down the vents to the low position (pictured). The range of up and down movement is quite limited though. I think it will work fine for me none the less. I'll provide more feedback soon.

Mine are still up for grabs if anyone wants a set.

I lived with them for a week. They really look great. I don't feel like I'm looking away from the road too much when I'm reading the gauges where they are at.
There is one problem though - it is the total lack of air control. I really thought that the angle the pods were mounted at would push the air somewhat toward the driver. With the fan at the low speed setting 1 - it kind of hits my right shoulder. Any setting higher than that, and it would just push the air straight back from the middle vents, totally missing me and the passenger. It leaves me with the one vent on the left to work with, and it is not very effective when things start getting hot. Essentially - I came the same conclusion that Hmbre97 did - in that I really need that cold air on me for the Texas Summer months.
The product otherwise it top notch. The quality is there - it is a very sturdy well constructed product. I wish even if it was fixed to do so, that it would just push air in my direction. I think I may have also been a little less of an issue if I only installed 1 vent instead of the two.
Anyways - that is my feedback on the AC Vent Pods.

So are you keeping them or selling them?
hmmm interesting
Not at this time.
Too many other projects and customer engine builds going on for me to make another run. It may happen in the future but not anytime soon.
well may be we can start a wish list and if there is enough people interested there might a chance down the road
I missed this. Very interested.
