Triple Pod Gauge Cluster

From www.gaugepods.com what is the size hole that they drill out for you?

And is the cluster a complete replacement or no?

Thanks for reading.

if it is the lotek pods, then it is a replacement, with 2 screws, you might have to drill holes for them.

Yes it does replace the whole piller, and i had a little trouble with the 2 screws they give you...you need to drill 2 holes for them, but there not long enough...so u need to go out and get longer ones...and be careful what u drill into...mine hit my seat belt line just a little, and it didnt work....but the look after is well worth it

I am working on a guage pod set for the climate control location.
I have moved the climate control beneath the radio.





I will keep people updated on the progress, I have enough material to make probably a dozen or two.

I am getting a Cobalt A/F Gauge from www.modacar.com . I am thinking about putting a vacuum gauge in my car to see what's going on while I drive, cuz I'm learning about all this in my auto tech class. And the 3rd pod, I don't know what I am going to put in it.

1989MaxMan - That looks good. I definately want to see it when it's done. It looks real good. Keep it up.

So far I have oil pressure, oil temp, and A/F. I am going to get Intake temp, Exhaust gas temp, and boost.

I just got the plastic in this past week, so i'll be making the first prototype relatively soon. I hope to get it done by sunday, so i will have something new for the Connecticut meet 12/19.

Look for good deals on ebay.
I have seen some guages go for as little as $10+shipping.
I am going with Autometer Phantom.

Keep your eyes peeled.

Ghostridden, did you find the website that sells the gauge pods for our cars? PM Subs1000w. He'll help you. Here's the site though. www.gaugepods.com It's the same one as Subs1000w
