LHD 3-meter gauge-pod? - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

What was the outcome on this? I have yet to find one of these for sale.

Yuki from Japanparts can help you out with this. They have the version for our lhd cars for sale. To fit it you have to dremel out some of the plastic behind the stock panel. That's the easy part. The 3gauge panel is held on by screws. This part is a bitch to get on. Other than that, in my opinion, this is the best looking part in terms of 3gauge pods for our cars.

I did some research and in the cars test videos the airbag deploys form the dash above the panel, not through where the 3gauge pod will be. Therefore there is no need to remove the airbag...

You can make one out of aluminum sheet like I did.

Thats pretty badass.

+1 for badass.

It's just .050 aluminum with 2 1/16" gauges. Once you pull the accessory tray out the gauges fit with out any other modification.

that's the exact same setup i'm leaning towards but I wasn't sure if it would fit.

I'm still confident that there is nothing better than this.

This. Relatively easy to find in the US. Bought from one of online stores. Don't remember which one. However, the LHD versions are discontinued and relatively hard to find (was already hard last year and now even harder I think).

I saw those links while googling... first one is just product description, second one isn't the same color as Efferalgan's (it's green), and third one isn't in stock.

I ended up finding the exact model from nengun performance. Thanks.
