[forksquared]

i had my fathers friend make it for me haha. and guess what i dont have the sterio wire mess anymore. the radio is up on top then i have the pocket on the bottom with my turbo timer in it im thinking about painting the silver gauge ring black. what do you all think? i need anew sterring wheel also anyone got any ideas?

[mmm240]

thanks for the reply!could you tell me what it took to make the pod?and i hear great things about steering wheels from this companyhttp://www.tekniqauto.com/

[DMan II-40]

heres mine

I really like this. Is it fab'd or bought?

[elvis240sx]

well it is just a peice of flat steel with three holes in it for the guages like alot of s13 guys run. what makes it different are the angle rings from Summit. i just had to bore out the holes a little and then you can tilt the guages in any direction you want. i think a pack of three angle rings cost me $8. i can post another pic if you want, they all face perfectly to the drivers seat.

[mrzabala]

Pls do. It will help rather than moving your head over to look at the gauges.

[Morph]

I was wondering about that also. Im going to mount some gauges under my cd player and i needed to angle them to the left and up a little to make it easier to see from the driver side.

Thanks Save my a$$ from searchin google all night.

[R6_240sx]

i'll play along.and i have 3 more to add to the center vent.

Wow im lovin ur setup I noticed u have one of those asian air fresheners

[S13.5 ICHI-GO]

i dunno if u like this...this is me

[mrzabala]

Nice and +1 for not posting a picture of the car with ur reply.

[S13HatchKa24DET]

Here is my gauge pod, it isn't finished yet though. I need to sand it down a little more, add another coat of bondo and then paint it. The center vent is definetly the best place for the gauges, but they need to be on an angle toward the driver.

[forksquared]

i'm short damnit! haha j/kbut i do sit quite close cause my clutch grabs right off the floor and obviously i need to be able to kick to the floor

[forksquared]

Question: How many of you run A/C and/or Heat with the gauges in the center vents and how do they effect it? That does seem like the best place for them, but I am going to be keeping my A/C.

[mmm240]

i don't have the guages there yet, but i imagine if you keep the heat/ac through the floor there won't be any problem.if you are really worried you could block it off somehow

[forksquared]

i run heat but it is always at defrost/feet
