No offense but why not just get the autometer gauge pod? Starting to look a little ricer that way. I mean they aren't at the same angle, but I still give it an "A" because that's way better then anything I could've done. But keep it clean and do it right. good luck!

at the time i built the pod the automeater unit was not out so i went a head and made one.

once the automeater pod drops in price i'll get one.

Bryan is right the pillars aren't hard to make. Just takes a little time, some bondo, and some paint. I basically followd BrianMP5T's directions for making a pod. Mine is a three gauge as well. Instead of using the stock pillar, I bought pillars out of a base coupe, molded a universal three gauge pod into one and then painted them both black. Not too flashy but definitely cheaper than a autometer pod.

I like it Bryan, I just don't like the way the two pods stick out compared to the stock pod. It was a damn good idea though.
