I've seen Bills one with his secs monitor in it, but has anyone else put any other gauges in there. I'm thinking of trying to fit a couple of 52mm SPA ones in or maybe one of the Lambda sensors with the digi readout.

Has anyone got any pictures of anything different to standard?

Paul.

I am interested in this also. Not sure 52mm gauges will mit without some modifications though - think they may be a little too big

get busy with the fibreglass and make your own Uber bling 3 gauge pod.

Too for me and I like that fact I will still be able to see vaguely where I am going when i look at the gauges

DaveEscos

I fail to see what's about it at all

I suspect you think its a great Idea really but lack the skills to actually make one

Lorenzo gave it a go.. ok he still f*cked it up... but at least he tried!

Not sure on the colour. If it could be finished like the original dash and held 3 x 52mm gauges then it would be good. The outer ones look smaller than the centre.

Paul,
We're about to put three 52mm gauges in one for a customer - will show you how it looks when done. To fit, they have to be angled towards the driver, but will look cool when done (and you'll actually be able to see them at a glance ).

Paul Eggleton

Sounds just what I'm after Mike Was just thinking this week about getting a second hand pod and having a play myself, but it sounds like you;re on the case

PAUL V

Mike just remember it is LHD when you point them to the driver

jbrayley

Any pictures Mike?

Anybody off here?!?!?

Another pic of it.

As soon as it is done .

That looks brilliant

Paul Eggleton

Too big IMO - I actually fancy mounting one of those tech-edge Digital afr readouts in there. I think Martin Hadland had done this but I'd like to mount just the display. I think you can buy it out of the case to mount in anything

Yes the car IS LHD... .

Very Nice Did you modify the existing banana pod or did you create a new mould? How much would you charge for doing this? I am looking for two 52mm gauges in the banana pod.

Cheers

It was done using the customer's existing one.

3 x 52mm = £55
2 x 52mm = £45

Paul Eggleton

That is pretty damn cool and a good price too.



Look forward to seeing them in the car.

jbrayley

Hi Mike, that is a very reasonable price. So you just need the banana part minus the standard three gauge part? When can I book mine in?

Mike Rainbird

iTrader: (3)

Yep, just remove the banana pod and gauges / plastic panel and send it over in post .

It would be nice if you could send the two 52mm gauges you want fitted as well, so that they can be nicely spaced, but not essential.

jbrayley

Cool, ill remove it on the weekend and get it off to you asap Ill try to post the gauges too if I can wrap them up securely.

Thanks

PAUL V

This is fine mike all looks very good
