Gauge Pod Installation Threw The Dash

When installing this Gauge Pod do you have to take apart the whole dash or how exactly do you wire the gauges through it and all? If anyone has any experience with this please let me know.


Thanks A Lot.

It snaps in place where the center spkr used to reside. Make up your wiring harness from the gauges beforehand and pass them down thru the opening left from where the speaker used to be. Fish them out behind the dash and run the wires - ground, light circuit, 12 +ign, senders, etc.

If you remove the center trim with the switch assy, there is plenty of room to work with. Some guages draw a good deal of current-make sure you don't overload on your ignition circuit. I've got the triple 60mm. FLYRX7 pod w. Apexi EL guages. Frank has been real busy but I heard him say he was considering making a new batch. Jump on one, awesome attention to detail and quality for the price! -Matt
