PA Racing beat ashtray pod/gauges and custom defrost pod

hello, i have up for sale2 guage pods with gauges first one is a custom gauge pod that another forum member made. He use to sell alot of them on here..well i sold my car so i have no use for this thing..its never been installed..id like $70 shipped without a gauge or $120 with a new autometer phantom 2 boost/vacc or 200 if you want a phantom digital fuel pressure guage.

the second is the racing beat ashtray pod, this ashtray pod comes with a set of three autometer sport comp digital gauges. which are way way better then the gauges racing beat sends with the pod. here are links to each one of these gauges so you can see how pricey they are! but also how awesome they look, very high quality. the wideband alone cost me $300 and im only asking $400 shipped to anywhere in usa..if you want everything pictured here ill do $475 shipped!

where does that 1st go exactly?

edit: the defrost vent to the left of the driver's instrumental cluster i imagine, from maz's post.

and it retains the defrost functionality it looks like?

You got and the answer is yes.....retains the defrost.

Not a real good pic, but here it is in my application. Least you can see how it fits. You pop out the old vent and snap this one in.
You could run the wire(s) through the vent channel, I just chose not to because of the gauge I was using.
I can tell you this much as well.......It fits tight and does not rattle. Do a search on "Vent POD" for more pictures of what people did.

^...............there were two sizes available.
52mm like mine, and there was also a 60mm.
This looks to be 52mm, but I really can tell.

I'm NA as well, and my setup can read everything off the OBDII. I don't want to jack his thread, but here's what I did.
Somewhere later on in the thread you will see what I end up monitoring most of the time.

Don't overlook his RB gauge setup either, that can be useful and looks good as well.

thanks maz. i'll read that thread. i like the concept of just a single pod up there on that vent, seems really cool. i'm sure the rb is useful but to me it's too cluttered, would much rather them put only 2 pods down there instead of cramming 3! besides, me needz a change holder somewhere!

thats what the console is for man..or the pocket on the left of steering column lol.. this rb pod seriously looks factory, if you use it with the racing beat gauges it does stick out and look clutterd but with these all black sport-comp digitals it looks almost OEM, especialy when they are off, because they just look blacked out down there which looks even cooler...and the red numbers and white led lighting make them match perfect at nite time. Dont buy a new RB pod for $400 bucks that has old mechanical gauges with oil lines running itno the cabin..screw that! haha here you could have these awesome sport comps which are the top of the line when it comes to autometer for $400 shipped! the wideband alone costs $299!! if you wanted to buy a new one, and the boost cost me $150 and $90 for water temperature the way i was going to set it up was the wideband in the defrost pod and boost/ water temp which are included and an oil pressure <-(not included)....

How much for the A/F gauge alone (if you part it out?). With/without sender?. Are you selling the "PLX" gauge? Thanks!

^...........There are hints in the thread that I linked.
Look at the last couple of posts!
Also, there was a thread were he was thinking about making dual ones. Meaning on stacked on top of the other but offset a little bit. Not sure he ever decided or not to do it.

Slightly out of focus, but my whole setup look like this now.
