Did you get the standard 52mm Mantis or the 60mm one?

Default BF's are only 60mm I believe...>>>

Not gonna fit in a standard Mantis...With the BF's you need the controller....Pretty expensive to put a set-up together. "D" series are similar stepper motor electric gauges (except boost), but they are standalone. No controller needed. Color is a reddish amber which goes well with the other red lighting in the center console area..

Default Nice way to maximize your gauge real estate!...>>

I think the only other guy to use them is JazziTT in his original Wilson Pod.
