Anyone know where to get a 3 gauge pod for the early cars??

Ideally it would fit above the stereo or maybe a pillar mount job.

Any ideas??

Cheers

Try Graham Goode,Power Engineering, Or any of the other "Performance Companies" etc,for an "A" pillar pod(I now that GGR definatley sell them).Or try Glen Campbell at Revolution,Newcastle(just down road from you)I'am sure he'll be able to source you one.
I don't think there is a 3 Gauge "A" pillar pod though, just a 1 or 2, I could be wrong though.

With regards to a console fitment, I presume you don't have a Double-din stereo, so you'll have a "Din" space free, most people just use plastic or metal sheets cut to the size of the din slot and just cut out a Dia hole for the gauges,(I have heard of people using cardboard & MDF).Just get a size of gauge were you can fit 3 in.

Hope this helps.

Richie, (blue peter time....)
I used the bottom of an ice cream tub, cut 2 holes in it and butchered the ash tray so that Ive still got the lighter socket then 2 dials in the DIN socket. Cover the plastic with carbon fibre and it looks the part !!,
TIM gauges from Les Smith shops are only £20 and they fit OK

Hi Dan

Could you give me some more details for the Les Smith shop. That seems like a great price, Demon Tweeks are more expensive for TIM gauges.
