I finished that gauge pod you sold to me.




What do you think???

 

looks cool, but i got two words for you...Private Message

 

nice work

 

Thank you.

 

WOW!!! VERY NICE! Much better than I would have done! Now all you need is a supercharger.

 

 

VERY nice, indeed... as for the "PM" remark... there are others (like me) who would like to see this mod as well... let us know when you get the gauges in!

ASU... any chance on seeing a writeup on how you did the gauge pod?

Thanks!

I started it, he finished it.

Here's what I used:
Stock Nissan A-Pilar- price unknown
AutoMeter 90-94 Mitsubishi Eclipse gauge pod- $20
Evercoat poly-Flex Flexible Polyester Glazing Putty with epoxy hardener- $25
Super strength 2 part epoxy glue

1. Screw the pod to the stock A-pilar
2. Epoxy it together.
3. Gob on lots of flexible polyester. Use lots and lots of layers.
4. Sand away.

This is where I left off. I got rid of my nitrous before I was able to finish, so I sold it to Maxman2000. He did all of the sanding and painting and finishing touches.

 

I used bondo (body filler) the rest of the way when I recived it from you asu174.

I bought it because not a lot of people in NH have them (but there starting to pop up like daisy's in hodas and some more cars now). I'm probobly the only 5th gen with a gauge pod in NH.

 

Thanks guys! Maybe there will be one soon here in Chitown...

 

It's a lot easier to do than you think. Like asu174 said, a lot of filler and a lot of sanding is basically what you need to do.


Oh, and when you sand, make sure it's out side, or people will think your a ghost(it got that dusty when I did mine).

 

Nice holes...J/K. What kind of gauges are you going to be running???

 

I want to put in Auto Meter's Carbon fiber series. I wan the Voltmeter and the Air/Fuel Ration gauges.
