That looks wicked!!! I might have to get you to make me one if I can ever get my fucking car running right lol
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - drunkinmonkey - 04-17-2012
Ya man for sure I can do triple double single for the a piller. A single or double for the gauge surround
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - euro_zx5 - 04-17-2012
Nice work Sean, Spence was showing me a shot you sent him... definitely making progress.
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - drunkinmonkey - 04-17-2012
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.
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - JMCustoms - 04-19-2012
Can you send me a price for a single pillar and dual dash please or if same price maybe a dual for both, you can hit me up on facebook if you want
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - drunkinmonkey - 04-19-2012
Pmmd my friend. Will get a price list worked our shortly
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - drunkinmonkey - 04-19-2012
i will have a more structured price point once i figure out what i want to charge
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - Flofocus - 04-20-2012
dont they sell these pods? That's a lot of work!!
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - drunkinmonkey - 04-20-2012
they do see the pillar pods but not the other ones...and i dont mind the work i love doing it
and anyone can buy a generic made one but not everyone can say they have a made to order product thats hand made
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - Kwame Russell - 01-25-2013
Awesome work Sean!!...Any ideas for a 99 Legacy B4 RSK (JAPMOD)??
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - jtdanks - 01-29-2013
I would most likely get a dash pod, price depending
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - hardk0re - 01-29-2013
make one
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:

RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - jtdanks - 01-31-2013
I like that second one haha, it seems more convenient for driving, instead of looking down and around the steering wheel Lol IMO anyway
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - drunkinmonkey - 02-01-2013
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
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - Kwame Russell - 02-01-2013
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.

Put one in each bottom inner corner of gauge surround
RE: How to - make a triple gauge pod - Kwame Russell - 02-02-2013
I'll do that!!...Question has anyone in the group ever traveled to the Bahamas?
