Boost Guage + Bracket?

Has anyone installed a boost gauge in their Countryman? I was wondering what brand gauge, bracket, guage pod you used, possibly with any pictures. I see there are tons of options on AutoMeter site for gauges.

Thanks

This one seems like a nice setup just surprised how much it costs

This one seem simple but there is no confirmation if it will work on the R60

I've seen a lot of people using the CraveSpeed one, but I've not added one myself. That's where I've been leaning towards since every install looks quite clean.

Hello, my first post - getting psyched about CM S on order. Nervous about idiot lights only, craven speed gauges seem like a good thing to add. Thought I would want water temp to know when engine up to temp for stomping on it and oil pressure to know everything is ok. First turbo, would someone recommend different combination of two gauges? Thanks

The Alta pods are made of plastic. There's a few old threads here about the pods breaking and/or cracking.

Cravenspeed pods and brackets are metal. I use Craven pods and bracket in my R56. Worth the money for the quality product IMO.

Are you only looking for a single gauge? I do have an extra VIP Aluminum pod with a Marshall gauge. The face on the Marshall matches the silver of the OE.
