P3 cars Vent gauges

Anyone know if one of the vent gauges from P3 cars will fit the X1?

I don't think the vent is the same design as a 135 or 335. There are apps and obd devices that can provide the same info.
What info do you want to view?
I use the app from the JB4 and it is great. I also use a PLX odb plug and that ties into Torque app...

Thanks for the tip. I am aware of other solutions to view the engine data, I was looking for something that fit in and was OEM looking like the P3 vents.

So I contacted P3 directly.

I am going to find out if there is any chance they would do a batch of 5-10 of these. Is there enough interest on here to get that?

Here is their response - from their director of operations :


Thank you for contacting us. Currently, we do not make our product for your vehicle. However, on certain vehicles we are willing to do a custom install for a fee. Your vehicle would most likely work with our VIDI platform and would for sure work with our P3 boost platform. Basically, if you purchase either version of our product and send us the vent you want it installed in, we can do a custom display for an extra $500. Since these installs are one-off, we are making all the parts from scratch and it does take much longer than our typical installs. That is why there is an additional charge. Please let me know if you are interested in this extra service and we can get the ball rolling. Thanks,

I have spoken further with P3 - they need 20 people for the price to go down. Either way I am going to do this and get one for my X1. I do not intend to collect the $$ or anything lilke that, for those of you who think this may be a scam. I am simply asking if there is interest. Any monies paid will be between the buyer and P3 directly.

Are you just wanting a boost gauge, or a multi-function device?

I was interested in getting the P3 vent display for my E90, but I just traded the E90 in for an E84. I'd be in for a P3 multi-function display for my X1.
