I am trying to figure out if I want a dual or tripod. Dual seems like there needs to be another yet the tripod one looks like theres too many People have also talked about angle and seating arrangement. Crikey I had a big enough battle going on in my mind So now it brings me to the million dollar question. What gauge pods are best for someone who is 6ft 2 has seat on lowest setting and 3/4 quaters the way back and is very fussy when it comes to quality/asthetics. Any help would be good

But I guess its a generic pod and you cant make one that will cater to everyone.I'm happy with it, except what a *beep* of a job getting the mechanical oil and boost fittings (autometer) to fit

There must be one that stands out surely...

I am going to have a go with the FG.. If I stuff it, the panels are $150 from Ford..
