Guage Pod

Ok well I just ordered my Wideband guage from zzp and now Im wondering where I want to mount it, I dont know if I want to just order a triple guage pod from zzp or if I wanna fabricate a guage pod.

So anyone have any pictures of where they have thier wideband guage mounted I would like to see and maybe get some idea's

Thanks

For the price, I would get the zzp pillar pod. It looks like stock and your gauges will look great on it. Fabricating your own is always a risk if you don't have practice on doing it. Again, for the price, it is worth it to buy the zzp pillar pod.

True but at the same time if you take your time and fabricate one, you will be different

But I dont understand what you saying

i have both a triple pod and i made a cluster bezel pod too. with time and effort you can make one and have it look good for less of a price then the zzp triple pod.

True, I have been looking at the guage pods at like autozone and pepboys and checkers but all of them are big as hell.

I know you can use the one that autozone sells, But I just dont know about having to cut the complete back part of the pod off for it to fit on the cluster bezel.
