Is this an answer to the R53 Chrono Pack?

I just noticed in the vendor annoucements area that Cravenspeed has launched a "flexport". Looks like it is somewhat modular and could hold anywhere from 1 to 4 gauges.

Has anyone seen this yet and what gauges would fit in here? I would certainly like to at least get a temp gauge and an oil pressure gauge? Anybody know what might work keeping in mind the orange lighting on the dash?

The FlexPod will allow you to affix up to 4 gauges of almost any size. There are a few gauge options that look similar to the stock tach on the R56. One is the Autometer Phantom;

Another FlexPod customer showed me these glowshift gauges, which are 2 1/16 (52 mm) also;

If you have any questions about how the flexpod works, I am happy to help.

Those gauges look good, but they dont have the same design as the mini ones! Isnt there anything out there thats close to mini design? I mean look at the fonts and the needle, nothing like minis!
