All I need is a set of dark JCW gauge faces and I will be all set.

I was thinking dark edges to match the dark edges on my tach. The large number of MINI options must be an aftermarket nightmare.

We are on it. We'll get the silver face right first, then the JCW.

I'll be curious to see how these mount. I ordered the JCW instrument cluster (2) that has one on each side of the tach, but I can always go for more information if it can be mounted.

Our FlexPod can be mounted in conjunction with the JCW gauges, no problem.

Cool. I just checked those out on Cravenspeed's site. Looks good. I need one with 8 arms though.

I bookmarked the x-clamp thing for smartphones as that will be my GPS. So maybe that on one side and another gauge (boost?) on the other.

We can do that.

Subscribed.
I just recently purchased the ScanGaugeII. However, I can't wait what you guys come up with because I would love to monitor my oil pressure as well as the temperature. Keep us posted!

Still in the works, getting the gauge face right takes some time. That is the current focus since the housing and circuitry are all but 100% ready to go.

Just curious, with the huge built-in gauge filling up the left side of the tach will there be an any different setup to work with the R57's?

Of course we have a plan for that! Just like our other FlexPod gauge mounting kits we can set it up in a ton of different configurations, you might want two on the opposite side, or for one to sit above the openometer...but there will be other choices too. Thanks for asking!

Are we talking weeks or months? Don't forget about non S owners that don't need boost gauge!
Thanks

I still can't give a firm date, sorry. I had expected it to be done this month, so now I suppose I expect it to be done next month, we do not want to release any products that we are not 100% satisfied with.

Do you have any options for your current gauges that have the black face and black trim rings? I'm still looking for something with a boost gauge that will match the JCW interior

Yeah we do! It is not a substitution option on the site, but if you give me a call I can just swap those in for the silver gauges on a kit for you!

No problem. You will also be able to get a single gauge built into our brand new Vent Pod for the R56.

Would the flex pod on the countryman be able to mount the guages low near the steering column instead of mickey mouse ear style?

The FlexPod is going to have to go up top on the Countryman because of the tach cave. It does really mirror the shape of the speedometer and air vents, but I get where the Mickey comment comes from.

The good news is that the vent pod I mentioned below will be compatible. So, if you just needed one gauge, you could go that way instead.

Kellen, no work around for the Mickey position? I'm not sure you can see the gauges in that position, it looks like the JCW gauges are on the lower quadrant either side of the tach
