Triple Gauge Pod Dash mount
 
Here is a gauge pod mount that we are producing. There isn't many places to put gauges in the BRZ/FRS, so we decide to make a dash mounted pod. Final pieces will be available in fiberglass or carbon fiber. Eta will be around 30-45 days

Price TBA

Looks good!

Can't tell from the pics but are they angled towards the driver or should I tell my passenger the acceptable ranges (j/k)?

I'm concerned on the same point, I'd rather have my boost gauge in the left air vent, like my Audi, then put the other three gauges in a single din setup above a single din radio. I don't want to have to lean over to see my oil temp!

They are angled toward the driver.

Nice, will you be making for RHD?

Do Boy 03-01-2013 01:38 AM

Put me on this list!

Do Boy 03-01-2013 01:38 AM

Also is this a 60mm or 52mm pod?

FullBlown 03-01-2013 09:06 AM

This will fit the 52mm gauge, we could do the Rhd version if there is enough interest.

will you be able to offer it painted in stock BRZ colour?

Yes we will, once we get them done we will try one out

Looks good, but I'm not a big fan of gauges on the passenger side. Any plans to fabricate something for above the dash either over the center or the driver side? Something that doesn't stick out like the cheap pods that just mount on top, but rather blends in to the existing console.

Something along the lines of this

or

Is that doable or not enough space/not practical for the effort? I know the vents are right there, so it couldn't be as flush unless you rip them out. I dunno, just trying to think of a clean/easy solution that doesn't extend past the center console.

^ kind of like the 3 pod set up WRX have?
