The Fredo Pod Mod...pics
 
I took an old dual gauge pod, cut it in half, cut the housing to fit on the panel flush and I molded on to the panel.
I painted the panel gumetal grey to match the rest of my interior trim.
I just put in an AUTOMETER volts guage in there for now, but I'm going to install a DYNOTUNE 2 1/16" round digital N2O pressure gauge later...($)

Tell me what you think.

nice! Just don't wreck looking down there :( I'm sure it was a lot easier to run the wires there too...

I like it, I think it looks really good.

Looks great, but what kind of functionality do you get?

Well, when the N2O gauge is installed I'll be able to read the N2O pressure while I'm at the track from inside the car. I "only" use my N2O at the track :devil: , so I'm not worried about driving and looking at the gauge. :drive:
It's also going to allow for an easy install for the N2O line.
But most importantly, I didn't want to have my N20 gauge in the same place as most others have it.

Looks nice. Is that out of the way of your leg?

PERFECT Z28 10-31-2006 11:48 AM

Yep, I'm 6' and it sits just right.

Smokin87TA 10-31-2006 02:12 PM

Thats a good idea. I have a spare guage pod for a different car, i might just do something like that.

Magnet 10-31-2006 02:24 PM

ArcticZ28 10-31-2006 07:39 PM

Very creative. I like it. Might be hard to see, but certainly original if it works for ya.
