Carbon fiber pillar mount guage pods

Would any body be intrested in these for around 75$? Just like the autometer ones but out of Carbon, with no surface "texture", theyd be all smooth. Just checking, because I plan on making them for my car and thought others might be intrested.

I'd be interested if you can make if fit better then the autometer pod. My car has auto seatbelts and the autometer pod doesn't seem to fit snugg.

Will it be the 52mm size or 60mm size? Also can you make some other type of gauge pod for the like on the dash in the middle?

The "86-92" Autometer pod seems to only fit the 86-88 cars - I had one and it didn't line up too well with the A-pillar on my '90 TII, so I sold it to a friend who has a '88 GXL and it lines up perfectly.

they will be 2 1/16th" holes. As far as I know the pods arent intended to fit the 89+ rex's. And yes I do still have a underspoiler for sale, as I make them to order but have one ready to go right now.

I could also make on that would replace the center air vents above the logicon. It would basically be a flat piece of carbon with 2 wholes, for around 40$.

unfortunately I cant make the one for the steering column, nor can I make any mickey mouse pods. But as soon as I finish the second one (after mine) Ill post pics and sell the first one to you FC. Should be an example to show pics of by Sundayish.

The one to go over the vents I would love to have one of those. How much to ship it or is that the price shipped? If I can't get the autometer one to fit I will get the pillar mount too. If you have any pics e-mail me some cunningj@vella-gulf.navy.mil
