Duell AG Japan sells one, it's pricey though, comes with DEFI guages:

2 guages

I installed the WATER TEMP and BATTERY CHECK that I bought From Craven along w the holder.
Wouldnt do it again as the bottom half cant be seen ans not adjustable either.
Cant be turned upside down either.

Just looked on Craven's site and saw this pic:



Did you find that there is NO adjustability (contrary to what is pictured above) or that the built-in adjustability still doesn't raise the gauge enough to be seen above the steering wheel?

Looks like a nice package, though!

I am interested too, farfel. You should have some nice adjustability with our gauge setup. If you are finding that they need to be moved for a better view, I can certainly help though. We have a variety of other brackets for mounting and ways of moving the gauges around more. Contact me anytime.

Is this the same kit but with Marshall guages?

That Duell AG kit makes me sweat everytime I see it. What I wouldn't do for a reputable U.S. distributor for their products smdh

EDIT: Sorry, didn't realise I was in the R60 forum. Duell ag stuff distracts me lol.

I have the Craven mount(s) for my Garmin and boost gauge, have Ultragauge for temp and other vital stats.

I have the craven mount (with boost and oil pressure) as well, and am pretty happy with it. I'd have liked the ability to put the gauges lower, but with the way the speedo is inserted into the dash that's not a possibility (without having some kind of forward angled bracket).



You can see there basically is no clearance, so the swivel helps get the gauges into a useful location, but they can't swivel anywhere else from there.
