Triple Guage Pod

ive serched around and havent been able to find anyone who still makes/sells a triple guage pod that fits 60mm guages that fits where the idiot cluster is. i have water temp, oil temp, and oil press, but no where to put them, and i also plan on relocating the idiot cluster to under my stereo

thanks for your help

You mean something like this ?






I'm getting a mold made of it for LHD FC's, hopefully selling them soon to the public.

yeah, i was planning already to cover it in black vinyl to match my dash, i like that it doesnt have the bubbly look most idiot cluster guage pods have, more of a stock look at first sight

Price?

im interested, keep me informed

these will fit 60mm or 2 5/8th guages right?

Well actually, I was planning on making it out of just straight fibreglass with a gelcoat of any color. The CF would be an option.

Edit: The holes in that pod are cut for 60mm right now. My 60mm Defi gauges fit in there really nicely

even better, im guessing this is still in development so you have no idea on price, but shoot me a PM when you get these things rolling so i can gather funds if necessary, thanks for your help


EDIT s that thing mocked up to fit yet or were you just experimenting? it looks like it kinda leans towards the passenger side and it doesnt quite fit right, just wondering

I made a mould a while back, it was a 3 pod cluster just like that one, but more lower profile but unfortunatly I destroyed it by accident while trying to extract the negative from the mould.
Sometime soon I will redo it, then they will be made out of ABS plastic.
