Gauges are the life line to your vehicle. They let you know when things are going well, or if anything is wrong. Sometimes it is necessary to install an aftermarket gauge in order to get all the readings you are looking for. The best way to install additional gauges is with BMW 1 Series gauge pods. Aftermarket BMW 1 Series gauge pods are designed to accommodate a large range of gauges and can be mounted virtually anywhere in your vehicle. Here at Andy's Auto Sport we have a full range of BMW 1 Series gauge pods from all of the leading brand names to ensure that you find the perfect style to suit your taste.

Gauge pods are one of those innovations that began in the world of motorsports and slowly trickled into street vehicles. They were developed in racing because many race cars have stripped interiors, including dash boards, and there was a need for a way to easily mount high-performance gauges. Aftermarket BMW 1 Series gauge pods are designed as standalone units that can accept a single gauge, or multiple gauges, and be mounted in a convenient position that is easy to see. While these gauge pods provide great function, we also think that they give a real race car look to almost any vehicle's interior.

Q: How do you install a gauge pod?
A: Gauge pods include hardware and usually attach to the a-pillar post of your vehicle; sometimes gauge pods are mounted onto flat surfaces as well and attach using the included hardware, depending on the style of the gauge pod. Normal hand tools are required and installation can be completed in minutes.

Q: What is a gauge pod? Why buy a gauge pod?
A: A gauge pod is an alternative method of housing your gauges if there is a lack of room in your vehicle or you're just looking for the sporty look.

Q: Will this gauge pod fit my right hand drive vehicle?
A: Most universal gauge pods will work since they are designed to fit a multitude of configurations. However, items like vehicle-specific pillar pods will be shaped to fit left-hand drive vehicles, unless otherwise denoted.
