TRUCARBON gauge pod

Does anyone have any pics of one of these installed, or is anyone using one?

I've looked at it in person, looks pretty awesome, but never seen one installed.

I did find it cheaper here though - http://www.modbargains.com/trufiber-ford-mustang-carbon-fiber-3slot-dash-gauge-pod.htm

How far back does it cover? Do you need to make a hole in the dash to accommodate?

I think the Ford racing one makes you cut a hole too right? This is still on my 'to do' list, so I haven't done it myself, but I think both would require holes at least somewhere. Just not sure if it's under the gauge mount or elsewhere.

Yes but some of them go all the way back to the AC vent and you can go in through there. I don't want to cut a hole in my dash.

I ran all of my wires through heat shrink that exits the back of my pod and then all of the wires will tuck between the dash and windshield. I ran mine over to the drivers pillar then into the hole under the pillar. Once they are tuck, you cant see them from inside nor outside.

About how far of exposed wire do you have between the back of the pod and the windshield? I want mechanical gauges and don't want a lot of tubing back there.

About 5-6" until it reaches the back of dash. I ran 12v wire, ground, boost\vac line, aeroforce cord and oil sending wire in the heat shrink. I ran my power and grounds together in the pod and ran one line out for each.

What three gauges are you going to put in there? A long time ago in my 1970 Road Runner I had
1. Volts
2. Water temp
3. Oil pressure

Would you use on for Boost if you had a supercharger? Mitch

 

[wakebum2507]

I'll run one for boost, one for oil pressure, and one for air fuel most likely.

I was just trying to get an idea of what this will look like, but it seems like no one is using it.
