I really dig the block8head pods but I am a not a huge fan of paying for a pod and waiting. I have done enough prepay and wait for this car....

I got the Block8head double gauge pod and I'm happy with it.

It was delivered quickly and on time.

Mine doesn't snap into the vent hole like the OEM part, and with the offset gauges, it pops out and leans to the side.

I'm waiting until after I install the second gauge, and then it will easily be fixed with a tiny dab of glue (Amazing Goop, similar to Shoe-Goo).

Mine does that as well. I put a bit of folded tape on the outside of the clip to put some tension on the dash when it slides in. Hasn't popped out since

Actually, mine simply wasn't pushed in completely. Now, it's pushed in so the tabs lock and it fits perfectly.

I picked up one of the Flexpod dual pods and while expensive the quality of it is very good. The pieces are all metal, not plastic or fiberglass. I am just going to run it with the left pod, it doesn't really obstruct anything but a small amount of the speedo which I never use anyways.

I will try to find out for you. When I paid, I paid for all work done. SC install, coils install, headers, clutch, flywheel, brakes..............etc. Not sure what it costs.

So trying to finish my gauge pod install today and just need to find some 12v power sources.

Where have you all been tapping in for power? Cables run down left side so was thinking one on the dimmer and one maybe on the radio?

Larkin · 05-09-2014, 11:51 PM

This is what I plan on doing
