Homebrew Lotek For S2

Category: Accessories
Price: $30
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): Series II
Location (US State/Canada/Int): CT
Item Condition: Used

Selling my modified Lotek pod that I used before I changed my setup to use a ashtray pod.

There are some minor imperfections, but I used it for about 2 years and got nothing but compliments.

Here are some notes:

1. It wont work if you have the bose system, you guys have a speaker up there and this would interfere

2. you cannot have deep gauges (Prosport EVO) or else the gauge will just slightly touch the center speaker mount underneath the grill. Many premium gauges (Prosport Halo, Premium, etc) fit without issue. FYI I used my EVO gauges up there, i simply cut out my center speaker mount since i dont have i speaker up there anyway.

3. This is essentially a lotek pod, that has been trimmed, and silicone bound to a modified OEM s2 speaker grill. You wont need anything extra to mount, i provide the white plastic spring clips to hold the pod in place like the OEM speaker grill does.

4. The minor imperfection can be seen in the pic of the 3 gauges, if you look at the bottom right you can see this small streak. If I remember correctly it is superglue from the clamps I was using to hold it together while the silicone cured. Pretty sure you can get it off with acetone, or some sandpaper, but it never bothered me enough.

5. The price is $30 shipped. Considering that the cost of a Lotek is 44 + shipping, then throw in an OEM speaker grill, then whatever you feel my labor is worth, id say it is a decent price.

Any questions, let me know.

I thought I might get this from you,but went with the 60mm gauges instead. I'm still looking for
a nice 3 gauge pod for the dash and RSW has not returned email as of yet, I hope they still make
this product.

Good luck with the sale,someone will grab that from you.

not to side track from my sale thread, but I wonder if you could just get one of these and an extra speakekr grill, and go to town with some fiberglass

It's a good idea and just might have to go that route if I can't find anything that looks close to
something that could be (OEM) if you know what I mean. And yes sorry if this has side tracked your sales thread.
