Florida 5.0 has them

I bought autometer pods and they work great. You can get them from Summit or Jegs pretty cheap.

Not sure what year you are looking for but http://www.speedofsoundllc.com/Products.html has some pretty nice looking pods.
PM alanw6 for more info.

Hey, thanks for the mention 89sleeper! I saw this post earlier and thought about replying, but we don't have anything ready for the fox body just yet, just a few prototypes and one-offs for our friends.

Here's what I did in my fox:

And here's a custom one I'm finishing up for Mansonozz:

Not sure if either will make production, but we'll see. Our a-pillars for the 94-up are doing pretty well thankfully.

No problem.

Those look nice!

Thanks man. As you can tell, I love me some fiberglass! I've been finishing up the gauge mount for mansonozz when I can find the time, and the other pods are made from the bullets used in my a-pillars. That one was easy.

I'm taking delivery on a small CNC mill in the next two weeks, and will be able to do some cool metal work with that. We've already programmed some switch panels and other things while playing with the software. Look me up if you ever need something milled for one of your projects.

Take care,

Alan

Will do.

Hey Alan... you got any ideas for putting an Autometer tac in an 86 interior? I want something that looks like it belongs there. Was even considering removing the driver's side vent and relocating the the idiot light to make room for something "in dash". A nice guage pod for the top of the dash might be nice too. Just thought to pick your brain and see if you'd done anything like that before.

I don't have any real access to a pre-87 car, so I haven't experimented with anything. I have, however, been pondering a 5" tach incorporated with the dual 2 1/16" pods. It should be pretty straightforward to mill a billet bracket to hold the assembly together.

Post up a pic of your (or similar) dash, and let's do some thinking "out loud".

I stole this pic form one of the guys in talk... the setup is basically the same in my car where the dash is concerned.

thanks guys

Scotty, hope it helped give you some ideas. sorry we got off topic in your thread.

Daggar, that's a tricky dash to integrate with. I'm with you on the idea of losing the driver's side vent and lights, but don't you need the vent? That's a pretty cool gauge holder down low. I'll give it some thought and maybe can up with an idea you can try.
