    Triple Gauge Pod recommendations needed ASAP

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I have three gauges from Inovate
    A/F for wideband, Oil Pressure, Boost gauge.

    I need a gauge pod so I can mount all these three gauges together on the side pillar.

    I can't find sh*t out there.

    anyone has some insight hints for me?

    I need this quickly

    i think there's a dual podi out there, or it may be still testing...get that for the a/f and oil...then get the vmr vent gauge for boost...

    Hope you know how to work with fiberglass then.

    Check out Martini's writeup for the single pod that he did (which I bought frmo him and now have for sale in the classifieds). Also note that a triple along the a-pillar will definitely interfere with the airbag that's mounted on the pillar.

    Yeah that's extremely dangerous. I've seen people custom fab. 3 gauges into the center controls thingy (where radio and stuff is)

    Re: Triple Gauge Pod recommendations needed ASAP

    If you dont mind drilling holes in your dash! Definitely not a good place to put multiple gauges in our cars, this is the best Ive came up with and the only reason I dont have more informative gauges

    If you had the factory double-DIN head unit and went single-DIN, you could put a three gauge pod in the DIN slot.

    Re: Triple Gauge Pod recommendations needed ASAP

    I wouldnt put a triple gauge pod because of the head-curtain airbag.

    not a good idea. that is why there is no market for a triple gauge pod

    Re: Triple Gauge Pod recommendations needed ASAP

    Sarabi had a stereo shop make one for him for the center vent for his S4...there are two wide bands and a boost gauge in the middle.

    Stereo shops do fabrication all of the time and this would be a no brainer for them.

    Center vents, as previously mentioned.

    Here's David's S4 that Greg mentioned. Very common in those vehicles.

    Re: Triple Gauge Pod recommendations needed ASAP

    Yes and no...the center three gauges are the same, but like I posted he had a custom triple pod made at a stereo shop.

    He has the Defi-link in the center attached to the steering wheel which controls everything (oil temp, oil pressure, fuel pressure, coolant temp, coolant pressure, EGT, RPM, speed, lateral acceleration)

    Greg, if I put all three gauges in the center air vents, there won't be any air coming out of the vent, right?

    Re: Triple Gauge Pod recommendations needed ASAP

    It depends on how you make your gauge pod and orient the gauges.

    Beat me to it.

    I think Crutchfield makes a kit that would work too.
