Gauge pod crazy, DCW got hooked up on building pods... Options

[doGGy]

I have now 3 pieces ready for painting. Pods will be painted in Satin Black with tiny texture in it to give the surface granes. Only thing what needs to be figured out now is how to fix it to the dash. Prototipe was fixed using Double side tape and it holded perfect. If the products will hold the same everything will be ready for the first 3 people to get them.

i would definately get one of these things, very nice work.

[Fastbird]

have the first three been selected yet??? I have a swap in progress via Dr. Tweak, and I'd MUCH rather see this in the car than the freaking A-Pillar pod. Please please please please pick me as one of the three is it's not already a done deal (LHD of course for me).

I m in !! Perhaps should you put it in the side skirts boxe when you ll get it back

Even if i don t have my side skirts i m in for your center gauge pod, it s not your fault if something goes wrong, only the postal service ...

If you got one that isn t paint it s ok because i ll have to paint it in Yellow ...

[rzanology]

center pod for meeee. im in.

[Celifreak82]

Dude nice hey let me know if u ever sell them.

Well, i have 10 pieces ready to be painted, just what im still trying to find the best paint to match the graines of the stock plastc pieces. Another thing what keeps me worried is what it sits on top of the dash and it is in direct sunlights, with makes it a bit soft after it warms up. I recently installed one into my Ex ST, and i have some pics, so if everything is ok - i will be posting them up tonight.

Another things what keeps me away from this projects is inormal heat over here, its 95F and huge humidity, so its practicly imposible to work during the day, so all i have is only evenings...

I will keep you guys posted.

Maybe interested as well but affraid of the thing you said about getting soft. In direct sunlight my interior goes op the 55 C (131F)

[Culpable04]

Well, the Test one is in the car already over all the heat we have here, so i will see how it goes, and see how it will hold on. As for now - everything was fine with it

[doGGy]

As promissed - finally here are the pics of the Finall style Center Gauge pod - mounted, with gauges and etc. The paint on this one in the pics isnt the one what all the pods will be painted. Basicly, i installed this one in my Ex ST-T to see how it will hold up, how it will react to heat and all the other stuff. But as it seems - everything is going ok so far

Sorry for the quality of pics - but all i had was my mobile the day i finished all the works with the Center Piece (installed TV / DVD, and E-manage into shifter surounding along with the open / close doors over it)

Will try to get better pics later, once he will get back to my garage.

You really should make a sticky in this forum and maybe others of what all you have made so far. Keeping up with all the posts is a bit of a butt.

I like the pod just not my style but nice none the less.

I'm not saying sticky this thread, but sticky a thread listing all of the stuff he sells, Making them easier to find for new members, would kill off kindof stupid questions like where can I buy TRD extensions (which I've asked) or what is that thing called that is over the gauge cluster. etc. Just and idea, Not that I expect ppl to approve.
