Just to say your offer should be popular, as the triple is hard to get. Cheers, Christine.

Do the double and triple guage pods use the same dash mount bracket/fastener hole spacing?

No they do not, the temperature probes also require extra wiring (the dual pod has only power run to it, whereas the triple aslo has temperature inputs)

It's a do-able mod, but it's not simply plug and play.

Guess I'll stick with my double. Would like the exterior temp feature for winter but haven't got time to wire up my own system. Still looking for a decent electronics supplier. Till then...

thermometers are dirt cheap at most auto parts places, I had one that I had stuck immediately under the dual gauge pod, I mounted the sensor to the back of the front license plate bracket. was really quick and easy to install. Doesn't look as "stock" as the three gauge pod, but it's much quicker and easier, and likely cheaper.

You can see it in this picture from my cross-canada trip 2 years ago
