Default Ventpods are installed ...

These things are really nice quality parts ... I was expecting some cheesey plastic pieces by they are definitely heavy-duty plastic. Air does indeed flow out the outer vents with them installed but are obviously not adjustable. For the wiring and boost tubing I made a hole in the bottom each factory vent tube. I would recommend them to anyone wanting a quick and easy gauge install ...

They are not angled ... and I have no problem seeing them from the drivers seat ... You can completely see the front of the A/C vents when closed can't you? I did put the boost on the driver side since it is analog ... and I can see the entire needle sweep. The A/F gauge is digital so no probem seeing that one ...

I installed mine this past weekend as well. For electrical gauges you don't even have to drill a hole. Looks nice, easy install and a decent price I think.
