so i got a new boost gauge a while back and have been waiting on my gauge pod to come. finally today it came! its a podi for a 52mm gauge and my gauge is 60mm so i had some fun with a drill. was a long day perfecting this and then getting it installed. everything is connected except power. which im going to do later. i probably will be late for work if i spent more time trying to figure out which wire to tap into to power it since it needs like 5 different power cables.. anyway.... pics..

i never knew it was this much of a pain in the *** to connect a gauge pod.....

will it illuminate in the same color scheme as the dash? ...and I have my Sirius Starmate in the very same place.

 

your car is off but the gauge is not at zero...?

 

Its an electronic gauge... It self calibrates every time it turns on... Ever see a defi gauge when it turns on? Same thing.

And to the other question.. Yes it lights up a red amber

 

ah gotcha. looks good then. good to know you can modify a podi gauge pod to 60mm if you need to.

 

yea. it just barely made it. the bottom is very weak i almost went thru it completely. its pretty much perfect. now tomorrow the fun begins with wiring it up....

 

nice job, but i wouldnt be able to stand having it in the way... vent gauge or pillar pods ftw

 

i had a vent gauge.. but i wanted a new gauge so i got a bigger one... and i wanted a column pod. but all the ones i found were centered. and i wanted to be able to see the screen atleast so i looked for a podi.. found that one on audizine for 25$ and i couldnt pass it up

 

That thing is HUGE looking!!!!

+1 to vent or piller pod... i have both. lol

thats cause it is......

thats how it would have been if i put it in a vent
