Center Speaker Mount Gauge Pod

Does anyone have any information or reviews on this dual gauge pod? Price is a little steep compared to others on the market but if it’s good quality then it might be worth it.

1993 1995 Mazda RX7 - Dual Pod Speaker Dash Cover - OCPM-23

I was also considering the Prosport gauge pod but really don’t need three pods. The Tripower is currently out of production and there isn’t enough interest right now to make another production run.

I haven't heard of that one before, it is a little pricey but looks decent.

May want to call around on the Tripower, RX7.com has it on their web site, they may have new old stock. That's what I have and it's a great pod.

I talked to Ari today and they don’t have any left. If there were enough interest they would order another batch but that hasn’t been the case due to the dwindling number of FDs on the road.

AERacer - That one looks nice and price is pretty good. I may have to try it.

From experience, the single pod from draklore is poop. Fitment is wack and wobbly leaving a huge gap in the dash. I would imagine that would extend to the twin pod as well.

I'd recommend the Tri Point one. The fitment was superb, but I took it out in favor of the Triple...sooo I have one sitting around in my garage in excellent condition if you're interest

I recommend the center pods from Fly RX7. Search for Frank in the forum records and his email will pop up. I bought one from him 2 years ago and he was still producing them. Extremely high quality and great fitment.

Prosport also makes gauge pods, i believe they only do 3 or 4 gauges though.

I have the Prosport triple and I'm really happy with the fitment and price. It does not look out of place and angles the gauges for pretty good visibility.
