Suggestions For A Pillar Gauge Pod

I'm looking for a one or two gauge pillar pod. I saw the three pod Lotek that looks great but that's more gauges than I want. I've seen some pictures of people with a two gauge pod but no mention of what brand is it. Are these universal pods modded to fit? The couple that I've seen at the stores look like they would fit a curved pillar but not the flat sided pillars that the 3rd gens have. My voltmeter is mounted under the dash but it's hard to see. Any brand suggestion would be appreciated.

IIRC, use the pods from a '94 Integra or something like that. you can get them in 2pod versions and they fit.

do a bit of searching on the forum, and you'll eventually run into the older threads about it.

I donated to the .org, and now I can use the search button; it's real nice.
