Classic Dash Pod
 

Hi all,

after making the dash pod for my classic impreza I have been contacted by dannyboygti to see if i could make another one of these dash pods, Ive agreed to make it and dont mind making them for anyone else on here that may want one, Im goin to lay this thread out like a project thread taking pictures along the way while I make the dash pod, ive been off work sick the past few days so havent made a start yet but atleast the part have arrived and will get started ASAP :D Here's a pic of the pods and the surround i will be fitting them in and also a pic of my original dash pod :cool:

its hard to tell in the pic's but each pod is on a slight tilt towards the driver

hello mate are you doing any like your original? as was going to buy the pieces to try and make it myself but think my atempts will end in disaster, ive got the single din slot guage bracket but not sure how filler and shape it onto the surround

ill be up for one if your going to do some more :thumb:

its looking good m8 carnt wait to c the out come :)

So those pods are there just to get the shape? They are not staying in are they?

ye the pods will stay there as they will hold the shape and give alot better fitment and stregth for the gauges, they will have the back of then cut down tho so they dont protrude to far into the dash

Great work

got the fibre glass done today, just need to filler around the pods then smooth and paint :)
