Custom Center Console Gauge Pod

a1j7g · 03-09-2008, 06:24 PM

Here is a custom center gauge pod I made for the space behind the shifter in my 08 Mugen Si. If any body wants one, I can make them either a single or dual pod for a small fee! great for a boost gauge or Nitrous. I added a volt gauge for now.

Or i can walk through a build...

looks good and stock, maybe try putting it more at an angle for better visability

good start ..needs two gauges to balance out the space and angled up.How is it held in place and what is it made from?

looks nice!, might look better if it was tilted at an angle of say 45 deg so you can see it better?

it is at an angle when sitting down, the pic doesnt do it justice. As you can see it is an autometer gauge ring and those are at the 45 degree angle. I used a template, made of moldable wood (feels like plastic), fiberglass, bondo putty, and primer/paint.

it snaps into place very firmly...i took a direct template from the center console...basically a lot of finesse and measurements

wow thats pretty slick, is it as clean as it looks in real life?
I would love to get that for a gps unit, are you still intersted in making them?

Yes everyone that sees it says it should have been there stock, paint matched perfectly, snaps into place perfectly. edges match as well. AND yes I will still make one, I recommend a dual though, thats what I will probably make here soon, PM if u want!

I have to figure out what to put in that pocket, I'm thinking an equalizer

looks pretty snazzy...but no offense...the car matts look bad =( im sorry dont yell at me...you should get the oem all seasons...i got em...i love em. =)

1chin3s3_b0i · 03-12-2008, 08:17 PM

would alot better if it was angles more to the driver

a1j7g · 03-12-2008, 10:23 PM

seriously it does...just think the console sits higher than the seat, so when you sit back in the seat it looks you directly in the face...read above messages...plus look at he pic of the wood template and autometer ANGLE ring I bought...its angles at like 30 degrees...
