Can't find Autometer dual gauge pod online for an 87 TurboII?!?!

What the hell is this crap? I can't find an Autometer dual gauge pod which holds the 2 1/16" gauges anywhere online. Summit Racing has them on backorder, Alamo Motorsports has them on backorder as well. Even JC Whitney wont have them for at least 2 months. This is a real problem for me because I already ordered and received an Autometer Phantom air/fuel gauge and a boost gauge, and I want to get them installed ASAP, but I don't have a dual gauge pod to put them in! Does anybody know of ANY online company that sells an Autometer dual 2 1/16" pillar gauge pod for an 87 TurboII that DOESN'T have them on backorder and I don't have to wait a month for? I need this gauge pod as soon as possible. Thanks.

Thanks for the info, but I really need answers from someone who has recently bought the Autometer dual gauge pod from an online company and know for sure that they are in stock and NOT on backorder. Or, does anyone know of any local shops that would have an Autometer dual gauge pod for an 87 RX-7? Their's a Pepboys about 5 minutes away from my house, does anyone know if they might have them, or any other local shops that might have them?

Where in NY are you? SK in Lindenhurst usually has them in stock. The Rockville Centre store should have them too.

believe me it seems like a dual pod is the toughest things to get for a fc right now.

i ordered one 3 months ago from the rx7 store, still dont have one.

It's worth a try. If it doesn't work you could sell it.
