Gauge Pods?

[fj40er]

I am looking for pics of peoples gauge pods. I am thinking of puting a set of gauges in the stock radio hole. Has anybody done this, and if so please post some pics. What did yall use? I have a set now but the plate does not fill the hole like I would like it to. Please help if you can. Thanks.

That was a $20 piece from Summit Racing. The part # is PLT-PM-2000. It is actually held in by the gauge retainers on the back side.

It takes a little carving, but does the job.

Can you post up some pics? How well did it cover your factory hole? I just would like for it to look clean, and not have any major gaps at the coners.

I actually had to open the hole up a little more. Also, as I mentioned in the write-up, I had to use a sanding drum to notch out the lower dash pads to fit the outside gauges. The results were great though.

Cirbo, the part # for summit is for a carbon fiber gauge pod. Is yours carbon fiber?

two carbon fiber overlays came with the metal frame, but they ended up in the trash.

I used to have 2 gauges in a small piece of aluminum that I cut to fit the radio hole, I don't have any pictures of it tho.

Yes I do have a pic after all, this was a very rough fab job obviously, from back when I had somewhat rougher fab skills
