nice to see another alternative for mounting gauges

WAR CRUNK 08-26-2010 10:18 PM

how much?

Sifu 08-26-2010 10:30 PM

Very interesting...I love my current vent gauge pod :)

foo77 08-27-2010 01:02 AM

looks good :icon_tup:

Great, I love my current one. Hmmm, maybe I won't add oil pressure to my Good Box and I will put fuel pressure and oil pressure in this :)

Block8head 08-27-2010 08:07 PM

The reason i'm making this is because there are a lot of folks from this forum emailing me requesting it....
it costs me a lot of time and labor and that the reason why i stop making the single for the 8

Hope you guys enjoy it while it last

Ben,

I'll be E-mailing you, but you got a pic of the back side?

Does the top pod have a passthrough for wires into the bottom one and then out the bottom one as before?

I've got two PLX device OLED display gauges I might just use here and I've been waiting for the double pod.

You going to do both 60mm and 52mm?


Current setup looks like this, and I would replace that oil temp gauge with another PLX(like on the left) to have two of these. I'd run oil temp and oil pressure to the second one! :)

Mazurfer 08-27-2010 08:19 PM

Drop the second question, I think I can see the holes in the first pic.

found the GB link on the mazda247 fourms

great work. the single is fantastic and this appears to be as well.

there are now 3 nice pod options for LHD:
your original single pod(no longer availible)
your new double pod :)
the molded LoTek pods from the group buy here(no longer availible)

Any idea what it would take to change this to a plate to mount a Cobb AP, for the lucky few that have them.....
