looks very very good.

they also make a single gauge pod that goes around the upper steering column cover.

if you haven't gathered by now, i'm not a big fan of the a-pillar gauges.

Yes its my car. I just got the phantom gauges from summit and the cluster and clock pod from summit as well. The gauge with the digital read out where the defrost button was is a PLX M-300 wideband o2.

MGT562, you have more cool stuff on your ride.......

Adam, you can get the pods at Summit as I recall, along with tons of spots.

Another cool option for verts (my fox is one and I know whatcha mean about gauges in the pillar), is to put the gauges under the radio. Nice OEM-ish look.

Good luck.
