Installed new gauge pod (center speaker location)
I had to take the 3 gauges off the driver side a pillar. (Pain in the ***!!!) Lengthen the wires to the gauges. (Pain in the ***!!!) Recover the A-pillar with new black vinyl because the old one had about 10 holes in it. (pain in the ***!!!) After about 4 hours of work...it was well worth it.
The 2 pods from the A-pillar are for sale...
Check it out...

That looks really good. Scrub has a dual speaker pod going in that looks alright, but, he's putting his boost gauge in the steering column pod. I didn't like that because it covers up the right bottom quarter of the tach. I think I'll go with a 3 or 4 gauge pod in the speaker and avoid drilling the A pillar. If I need more than that, I'll put a couple in the empty DIN compartment. Looks really good.

yea i really like how that matches the interior well and gives it a very stock look compared to the a-pillar guages... i'm also just not a huge fan of a-pillar guages cause every ricer has about 5 of them lined up there anyways... it's nice to see something clean and different

Hey, fastrx7man, where did you order this pod from? I'd like to get one of these or maybe a quad pod. Your's seems to come farther forward than the dual pods I've seen.

man that looks sweet. I don't have a problem with a-pillar pods as long as they have function. I don't worry too much what ricers have because most of their cars aren't even turbo or supercharged so if they have 10,000 gauges in their car what function could those have?
