Center Gauge Pod Discontinued?
I swear this stuff was available just a couple months ago. I can't find any place to purchase the center dash "bullet" gauge pod by LoTek or equivalent. Was not quite ready to buy yet but now I feel the need to go on a hunt for one.
Apologies if this is a duplicate post I searched here and Google and couldn't find a topic on it nor a date when it was discontinued.
Other than the RHD ones which won't work here I thought these pods were the best besides some custom solutions.

While I don't have an answer if you still want individual gauges or the gauge pod. I recently was looking into the stock gauge cluster and there are a few modifications possible on the market that could integrate your gauge readouts into the stock gauge cluster.
This guy has found a way to make the coolant temp and oil pressure actually work with custom set points if you want.

A similar solution was a drop in can digital display that you could add readouts for water/oil temp and pressures. This guy has some cool stuff on his youtube. He also has made a mod that allows the power steering to work without talking to the oem ECU.
Otherwise I found a company making an LS swap gauge cluster swap.....basically they made a full drop in gauge cluster, not sure why they dont market one to stock rx8 owners as there are several issues/annoyances with the stock unit. I did talk to them and they seem to be willing to make custom units if you ask for features, not sure on pricing.
