E70 X5 Gauge pods

Who was the guy selling the indivudual gauge pods a while ago for $25 or something like that. I would be interested in picking up 3 if its still available?

I think you are referring to me. I was making pillar mounts (and still can by request) but I got tired of them being so in my face and they can create a blind spot so made a dash vent version instead. I 3D scanned the dash so it makes a perfect fit and it completely hides the wiring and creates the illusion they permanently mounted to the dash. A rotating cam interlocks with the dash and holds the gauge pods firmly in place. It works on both standard and leather dashes although some X5 models came with a different vent design so make note of which design you have before ordering.

I also just tweaked the design to print as clean as possible in high temp carbon fiber filament which gives it a nice satin sheen worthy of a BMW and increased the size of the cable channels to be compatible with Banks gauges. They are available Single, Double, and Triple gauge kits and I also make a small oil pressure kit that comes with the sender adapter and circuit to interface with the stock BMW electronics to allow you to run a oil pressure gauge of your choice and still retain the factory warning system. You can adjust when you want the warning to go off (stock is 7psi switch, I set them to 25psi but you can adjust to your engine). They are 35 for the single, 50 for the double and 65 for the triple. If interested PM me.

I still like the pillar mounts, because I like how they look and I'm used to them. How much would it be for 3 in black? I'm looking at all my options at the moment. I am MHD Tuned, but I hate how I have to connect to see any of the gauges.
