Who sells the best gauge pod?

Well, I'm a bit irked. I bought an Autometer a-pillar gauge pod from Carparts.com and they shipped me a friggin' MR2 pod. Even worse, the damn thing had plastic shavings all over it and we had to use a razor to cut them all off.

Can somebody recommend a vendor/brand who sells decent gauge pods that WILL fit a 94 RX-7? I need an A-pillar pod that will house a 60mm Apex'i mechanial boost gauge.

I thought PFS made a pretty decent pod, but ya know, it's PFS. I don't know about the size of the gauge that will fit in there either. It may be 52 mm.

I bought the autometer guage works pod, and then dremeled it out to fit my 60mm gauge. The dremeling is easy, and necesary since no-one makes a pod for a 60mm guage.

I'm gonna relocate the A/C and heater controls to the center console. A Defi boost and EGT gauge should be plenty happy in the dash Looks very clean and they are easy to see.

check out this site if you are interested in doing this.
