|  Din sized gauge mounts... Afternoon folks! I've got 3 gauges waiting to go into my mk1 Octavia vRS. I plan to fit them into the second DIN slot in the dash but I'm having trouble finding a suitable holder. I don't like the ones which angle the gauges slightly towards the driver but they seem to be the only ones on ebay at the moment  . I was told that Awsome-GTI sold the flat type holders but have been unsuccessful locating them on their site. Does anyone know where I might find one? Thanks Phil. |

| Re: Din sized gauge mounts... Have you seen the one on the Golf Mk4 page? Awesome GTI Store UK - Mk4 Golf Interior Styling Not sure if it is the same part but it looks much more nicerer!

| Re: Din sized gauge mounts... Thanks Simon, there is a price difference so perhaps the Golf panel IS of better quality? I agree it does look better. I'll go with the golf one! Thanks again. |
