Side pillar gauge pod
Does anyone know where I can find a 2 guage pod pillar? For the side windshield part you know what I mean? I can;t find one anywhere.....is there something that will fit there thats not specifically made for the rx8? I have the dash pod from gaugepods.com but they don't make one for the side pillar....
Thanks |

My friend good luck on your search I have looked for a long time with no luck the only one I have found it that carbon fiber one I wish it had space for 3

So you want to remove an airbag and replace it with a turbo timer and oil pressure gauge? Better off with some of the other gauge pod positions IMHO.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think from photos I've seen, the airbag is a curtain type located along the headliner above the door, not behind the plastic cover of the A-pillar. This would make sense as any airbag in the actual pillar that would go off from a front three-quarter hit would be hidden behind the steering wheel airbag I should think.
Or I should say it has to be in the A-pillar from looking at it, it couldn't be in the headliner do to location of other stuff. |
Well...it couldn't be in the headliner because of the position of my head. I would no longer have to worry about a head injury from the crash, the airbag would have taken care of it. Also, there is an airbag in the rear pillar as well so they must have come up with something for it. But when you take yours off and it goes off by accident, let us know how it works. :P
Not that I would use it...but it would be nice if someone developed a carbon fiber insert for the ash tray hole for two or three gauges. Just so it is made easier on everyone that wants gauges. |
There is the Racing Beat ashtray kit, but not in carbon fiber.
|
See...I have no use for it so I haven't looked. Too busy looking for a way around ordering a Corksport kit.

AFAK, there are no airbags on the A pillar... I know it that has the airbag symbol/logo on it but it's actually located at the roof lining by the a pillar, not behind the a pillar interior piece.

It just doesn't seem right (from looking at the headliner) that it should come from there. I'm not arguing, I agree, it just doesn't look right to me. :)
|
so why doesnt a company make one by now? Lotek makes one fro every damn car on the planet. Why no a pillar love? Their the most common place for them i dont get it.

A-Pillar does not have an airbag in it.
|
I like the lotec unit on the dash.
Try a search, I swear I have seen two or three pillar pods. |
If we show enough interest couldnt we show lotek theirs a demand?
|
yes it does not have an airbag this has been discussed about 2 years ago.
|
|
I say we get all the memebrs here to mass email gauge pods.com and show them we want an A pillar gauge holder. info@gaugepods.com is their email
