    Gauge instaleld in dashboard...









    It wasnt too hard..just pulled the vents off, and sawed the hole. But i had to hack off the screws on the gauge so it would clear the metal frame behind the dashboard. I got one more to install, but it goes with soemthing else..

    looks good but please tell me why bother to have gauges if you have to look way over there to read them?

      Its been over there(in the area) since ive had it. Ive gotten used to it being over there. And i dont need to study it, just glance at it once and awhile. BUt yea its alittle far. But i dislike the A pillar gauge pods..

          are they sideways elevated so that you can see them? or they just sit flush all the way?

            Its sitting flat, before i had it mounted sideways hanging from the glove compartment (double sided tape). But i couldnt deal with the wires showing ad stuff. if it was moutned sideways it would be real nice..

                    I am with ya on the A-pillar gauge pod hating.....

                    Makes ricers think you have some crazy ass fast car, when really their rice is hella slow. And it also makes it harder to keep the sleeper effect.

                      how would it ruin the sleeper effect if riceres see em and just think "oh its just another ricer"

                          most ricers dont see themselves as "ricers." They think their cars are fast and will think yours is as well for having the A pilliar gauge pod....

                          Ruins the sleeper effect b/c a sleeper looks almost completely stock, yet under the hood is not. I dont think glowing green/blue gauges on the A pillar was an option for many cars.....


                          1. looks ricey IMO , and 2 it could either be fast, or a wanna be fast car. Either way it makes you look bad IMO.
