Just curious is all...
Yes, it could be done - but this would be rather custom 1-off piece. Its a tight fit for 60mm gauges there, but 2x52 would fit.

I have 2 AEM gauges and they are 52mm, I really like your design and placement so if its possible maybe we can work something out in a gloss CF pod.

We have a process and mold into existing factory pillars (hence we do have a refundable core charge). We can do these in a variety of matte or gloss colors. If anyone wants to know more about the quality of our product, feel free to check out the pillars we've made for the Genesis Coupes for the last several years.

Since we begin with factory pillars, we retain factory clips and function. In other words, the airbags will deploy as Scion/Toyota wanted it to as long as you leave enough slack in wiring. Because there are airbags, we recommend anyone with an A-pillar setup use electronic gauges in case on an accident. Especially if you're using say...an oil pressure gauge. I don't think anyone wants a cab full of oil when the airbag deploys.


Our prototype set is going to get a trial fitting on an FR-S coming into the shop next week. Once we know everything is right, we will begin production of 2 and 3 gauge sets. The only delay would be how quickly we can get factory pillars.

Note: I'm only putting it out there that these will be available to the market. I cannot provide a direct link so as to not violate any rules.

Fitment is great. Pre-sale going on now since Toyota/Scion is saying it will take 2-8 weeks to get in. I know...vague isn't it.
