Thanks man. It's almost there but more sanding and some final testing and fitting then time for paint
For the gauge surround and the door gauges I would require the surround and door piece. Or at an additional cost I can tru to hit up the local scrap yard and make one. As for the a pillar I have a mock up. But you guys are responsible for hacking your stock a piller to run the wiring etc.

make one Smile If your in the GTA I have a few cluster bezels if you want a spare one to play with.

I've made a few in my day, funny enough tho. In my new car I did end up rocking the store bought 3 pod pillar mount, just because well they made them and for under 40 bucks from the store it wasn't worth the time to make one (to me anyway).

There is also this option:

or dual cluster:

I like that second one haha, it seems more convenient for driving, instead of looking down and around the steering wheel Lol IMO anyway

Ya the dual cluster is pretty easy to make. I used central vacuum tube. It's thinner walled. PVC pipe is to thick for that one. All my other piece were done with black PVC pipe

Don't think i'll any pods down here in the Bahamas but i'll definitely take a crack at making one. Very creative to say the least. Whats the hardest task to make a customized pod? I like the idea of gauges around the original cluster but i don't think it's possible with my setup.
