5th gen gauge pods?

Is there ever going to be any? For those of you who do have them, where did you get them?

Heat gun won't do anything. The pint where it flexes will cause a crease where one of the gauges go. I tried it for a long period of time. This is the best it will look.

If anyone is interested in a little project, I have a partially fiberglassed OEM gauge pod for sale. All you gotta do is sand it and paint it. I paid $100 for all of the materials. Make me a reasonable offer and it's yours.

Right now I have no money but I might be able to get some tommorow and buy it off of you. That is unless somebody else byes it.

It is everything pictured in the second pic. It includes the pilar, pod and sandpaper. It is by no means finished, but with some TLC and paint, you can get it there.

Alright, I won't hold my breath anymore. I have been waiting for this since last October when I heard talks of this coming out soon. Maybe it was September. This custommaxima guy hasn't answered a single email I have sent him for the past few months.
Will three 2 1/16" gauges fit under the radio section? How much should I expect a shop to charge me for this setup if it works?

Ultra light. They look great with the stock titanium gauges on the Max.
