it's a little more than just making two holes. you actually have to trim the underside of the dash for the pods to fit in.

The Pod picturedwas the prototype. I threw in what gauges I had sitting around and snapped the pics, they are non-operational. This is also on the FAQ's section of my site.

Also, aside from what goes along with installing new gauges, cutting two small holes (half ovals, approx. 1.5x2")on the underside of the dash pad is all that needs to be done. Some have even (not recommended) shaved the back of the actual gauge.detailed, pictured instructions are sent with each pod...

I would recommend Boost, A/F, and Oil pressure gauges to fill your pods...

Hope this cleared some things up..

I have a volt meter in my turbotimer so no need for that. I would preder to have my gauges like in the picture then on my left next to the window. I was thinkin of getting a boost controller so no need to get another boost gauge. So all I would need is a Oil temperture gauge. I think that's the best thing for me.
