Question RPD Gauge Pod?

Does anybody here know of somebody that would be good for a custom gauge pod project?

I'm wanting what's basically a normal gauge pod, but want to have the nook for the RPD up front. That way I can run the RPD and a gauge or two to supplement the RPD or show what the RPD doesn't.

I've tried putting out a feeler to a vendor or two, but haven't gotten any replies or interest. I'd like a stock color/finish if that's possible.

Well basically this:


...But instead of a round gauge up front, it's got a place to mount the RPD.

Pretty much just looking for the normal RPD Gauge Pod Pillar, but with an addition of round hole too, so I can put a normal gauge in there with the RPD.

sounds like a great idea but what other gauges readouts would you need besides the rpd?

Two right off the top of my head would be IAT2 and CEL code reading/clearing. I'd also like to see some of the stuff you can't see all at once on one page.

I'd like to eventually stick an Interceptor or equivalent in there.

yea would be cool to have a interceptor in there but only a handful of us actually have the rpd option.

Yeah, that's why I'm thinking I may have to get something custom done. I'm thinking now that the vendors are going to leave this one alone since they may not be able to get the numbers they need to make it worth their while.

Anybody out there able to fab something that'd be like stock but with another round gauge hole?

Would be cool if they could test fit one that would hold an RPD, DashHawk or DashDAQ

That way it would be very useful.
