It’s a tough situation for sure, and the backup camera is what always brings me back to a double din! Fingers crossed for no issues with theft, but I’ve got some plans for theft prevention. I’m watching my truck like a hawk everywhere I go now hahah.Stuck in that same boat of wanting a double din car play stereo, or just going single DIN marine deck since I do take the top off every summer.
I've had 2 stereos stolen in previous vehicles so I'm seriously considering the ol @theglobb portable bluetooth speaker setup. I really do like the amp/sub stereo at them moment, gives a nice thump for sure, I just needs to get a smaller hidden setup and not have to worry too much about thieves...IH8THIEVES!
I decided on Auto meter, they are a reasonable price, good reputation, and I could get very basic black and white with orange needle to help match the other gauges!What pods did you go with?
been working on a few things here and there, but mainly just driving the thing. Took my girls camping and it was a great trip, no hiccups or surprises. Everything felt good but I’m looking forward to getting new front spring bushings, hopefully coming in the next week or so.

friday nights are when they get to watch a movie, so movie night was on the drive. Classy I know.

I also put the gauge pod and gauges in for the up coming turbo, and routed the applicable connections.
@PradoOnHudson Here is the mount that I got. I looked around and could only ever find 2 pod units. It would be nice if I could get a 3 to add my trans temp, but I'm OK with just a 2 pod for my boost and EGT. Autobox ships quickly and with the exchange rate its a good price. Tight fit in some areas, but it when its in, its in there. No complaints about it!
Yeah I think a nice dual gauge is an easier option than finding a 3 gauge pillar mount.@Blomdala Thank you for the link! I'm also considering which gauges to get, with a priority on pyro, boost, and water temp, so thought one of these isspro dual pyrometer and boost gauges might help in the situation I could only find a two pod unit.
Any thoughts on the reliability on of combo gauges?
Any isses with fitment of the autometer gauges in the SAAS pillar?
