gauge pod install.......
i put an oil pressure gauge and volt meter in the cubby hole here is the pics :
i redid the location of the gauges and put them straight be cause the glass would have been to thin and not held. the first pic are how they were befor i changed them.
I'm going to cover them in dark blue vinyl tomarrow along with the shifter trim ( a limanating the PND231)
and the gauge trim.
i will post pics with them in the car and covered tomarrow

LOL ya me too, I got too much junk to give up ma kubbay. I did find some slick a-pillar pods on the net though, they look a lot nicer than the ones from pfyc IMO.
Looks good though, for sure need some finished pics when ya get done.
