I wonder if someone can post a pic of the bracket that is used to mount the pod? I bought a used one off of a local guy & the bracket did not come with it. Better yet .... if someone can use theirs to "make" me one .... that would be awesome.


I'm currently using velcro to hold it on .... which really sux.

Thanks for that pic.


So your pod has no "bottom", correct?


How does that thing mount? There appears to be something like a bolt holding it down (guessing by the pic). Do you have to remove the inner vents to get in there?

looks like a simple mending plate should do it then

 

[urban96]

ya i guess i shoulda explained it better

there is no bottom to my pod. the top piece of the bracket is a /____| sorta shape and its held to the bottom flat piece with a bolt. and it sandwitches the dash in the middle of the two.

the top piece of my bracket is held in by two small screws that you dont really notice

yea thats a perfect drawing, if you reallly realllyyyyyy want you might bealbe to convice my lazy ass to take some pics of mine.

 

[SeventyMach1]

Well .... I don't want anyone taking their pods off just to get pics.



I should be able to get some aluminum stock & fab something up. Thanks Urban!


BTW, is there any chance that I'd have a clearance issue between the retaining bolt and the A/C inner vents?

Thanks alot man! Yeah, I'm going to make my own .... so that is REALLY useful.

 

[Iggyshane]

np glad i could help

I'm going to hold off now. I just called Auto Meter and told them I wanted to order a hardware kit for the pod (just to see how much they were). The lady said she would try to have one shipped to me at no charge within the next week. I explained to her that I bought it from someone personally & it didn't come with hardware. She said it doesn't matter & she'd send me one anyway.


In case it doesn't come, I'll be using that info. Iggy. Thanks.

Wow, maybe she would have been willing to do other, er, um... "favors"

Good to see there are still decent people in the world, and especially in the parts business
