Cluster surround gauge pod for 2nd gens?

Thoughts? I wonder how much of the fuel and temperature gauges it will cover.

Now that's clever. Any pics of one installed?

very similar to the frog eye pod on a 1gn

THAT LOOKS NICE, I ALWAYS LIKE KEEPING THE GAUGES DOWN AND OFF THE PILLAR

If I remember correctly Mike aka caraudioholic24 has one and doesn't like it or something.. I can't remember. But contact him to see what he thinks about it

That's the first thing I thought of. Every time I saw one of those in a 1st gen, I wished they had something like it for the 2nd gens.

grabbed a gauge and took a couple shots given this isnt going to be exactly the same but its close and gives you a good idea

gas is OK you can still read it

but i hope your installing an aftermarket temp gauge here so you can still read temp!

Ouch, not so good. Too bad.

maybe with like a 1" gauge you could see the top half and know when your overheating but the aftermarket one would be useless

Looking at it afterwards, the pods don't look deep enough to handle LED-backlit gauges. I already ran into that problem with the stock SRT-4 pod.

Oh well.

IF YOU CUT DOWN INTO THE SURROUND MORE AND SUNK THEM IN LOWER IT MIGHT WORK. ESP IF YOU USED AN AFTERMARKET TEMP GAUGE
