Upgrade your Audi B5 interior with a clean, factory-style gauge installation using a precision-designed center vent gauge pod from V3D Engineering.
Designed for Audi A4 and S4 vehicles equipped with the B5 chassis, this gauge pod replaces one individual factory center vent while retaining the original center vent housing. No cutting, drilling, or dashboard modifications are required to install the pod itself.
Each gauge pod is sold individually, allowing you to install one, two, or three gauges across the factory three-slot center vent assembly.
