Center Air Vent Mod
 

Ok heres the deal. I was high when i came up with this idea. A friend of mine owns a Firebird that has round air vents like in a Grand Am. He said he was going to put his gauges in the holes. I thought it might be cool to try and put a gauge in the left side of the center air vent in our cars, and on the right have a plastic piece with the OLDS logo cut out and some LED's behind it. Then use the center hole to place a switch to control all the interior lighting for the car.

Like I said, I was high when I came up with this so dont be so critical LOL.

Just let me know if you think it is possible.

Cool idea but itll suck when youir freezing you whoowhoos off in the winter

Why don't you try to create something that still allows the air to flow into the c**kpit area and around the guages and the Olds logo. That way you will still have proper ventilation for yourself and passengers.

i think it could looks good ... but i wouldnt do it because i like my heat.

ehh......not a good idea. I need my heat, especially now....its getting pretty damn cold in the morning. I hate it

You can have both if designed correctly.

i don't think it would look good or stock. espicially for the amount of work involved. but prove me wrong

Chipmunk I think it has potential but as stated, it is a lot of work.

Wasn't that the first response?

Is there a reason you find a need to type in a large font. We are not blind and it is quite annoying.

I like the font, and at work, the monitor is somewhat hazy, so I can’t see terribly well. I’m sorry if it annoyed people, it wasn’t my intent.

dont let anyone tell you to type in a different font type as big as you want. say stuff how you want to say it. IF YOU WANT TO SAY IT BIG SAY IT BIG!!! and yes i would hate to freeze in the mornings.

hes in NC, so coldness, isn't a factor... (as much)

i say, get a spare center vent and give it a shot. post up the results and i'm sure a bunch of fabricators will be able to give some points as to how to give it some finishing touches, or how to do things better..etc.

lawl, cooked gauge! yay!

Like this? Did it in my audi.

Here's what I did:

I think if it was glassed in to one of the sides, then the air duct was cut off to that side, it would look and work great. Not a fan of just slapping it in there though....

I would consider it, but i already have too many gauge pods, and not enough gauges.

hahah..

c**kpit!!!

hahah

roosterpit..sorry I just had to try it too
