CustomMaxima Triple Gauge Pillar Tested- PICS!!

Me and JoesMax drove up to Greg's place and tested fitted the new triple gauge pod on my 98. Here are some pics that Greg snapped while we were there.

I think it looks great. Fits perfectly....nice and clean. Wish I could have kept it, it was hard giving it back

Pod 1

Pod 2

Pod 3

Greg said they'll be for sale in roughly 1 month.

looks good! it blends in real well with the interior. i think i may just get a set, but since i am not boosted, what 3 gauges could i use that would serve a purpose to me??

I'm not either so I went with Air/Fuel Ratio, Voltmeter and Water Temperature gauges.
It's mainly for the look right now. I should be boosted by next winter...

Is that a gap at the top of the pillar, or is it just me?

That's a glare on the edge of the pillar. There is no gap at all.

the top of the pillar curves in like the factory piece, so it rests against the carpeting
