yeah I was thinking about doing that but if I can find a 3 pod mount I would rather do that. If I do end up finding something I will make a post about it for sure.

Actually that was a custom fabricated 3-pod. When asked where he got it, he said he was thinking about marketing, but I didn't hear squat later...

Yeah, let me know too. I velcroed one to the bottom pod of the dual one. It looks fine but I'd prefer a better long term solution.

Tri-Power Performance is currently working on an OEM quality 3-pillar Pod for the 3rd gen. Their progress will be posted online soon.

Can you see the top gauge though?

I figured the reason it wasn't made for the 7 is the top gauge would be too high. Autometer makes a dual guage pod for the 7 but they make a 3 gauge pod for the Nissan 300Z TT.

If you want to try the project, buy the one for the Z and trim it to fit. I don't have the tools or the patience to be that creative.

Autometer makes at least a half-dozen tripods for various imports. I was checking out their site today. It makes you wonder about A-pillar dimensions

I am in the same boat as you. From looking at the pods, you need to cut some off of wherever they meet, because they round down the ends.
