Lightbulb Triple Gauge Pod???

I saw these on a JDM evo and they are pretty nice looking, kinda like what the 350Z has for themselves. Just wondering if anyone knows where to get them???

the gauge setup ontop the clock and hazard lights. i think that would look pretty nice on our evos!

Z1 Auto and Gruppe-S both have Defi products, and I am sure they can get that for you. I received the actual gauges today and will be installing them tomorrow, without any "pod" thing.

keep in mind that center guage pod isn't gonna be flush or seemless... you have to pop rivet it in to my knowledge so don't ge tyour hopes up. there are plenty of other solutions for gauge mounting available to the evo. craig hardy panel, the cubby panel made by audi18, various different types of a pillar pods and those micky mouse ear pods available from lancershop.

How about the kit that comes with the outer case for the triple guages in the above pic for the JDM model? The one in the center above the vents similar to the STI? Can we get those and how much? Is that a complete kit or you have to bu seperately?

thats what i'm trying to find out. I found one made by HKS but its slanted the wrong way cause its for JDM cars so the gauges wont face us in our evos. i'm not sure where else to get it. I think Z1auto said they were going to get some in later so i guess just wait and see.

a pillars take up windscreen visablility, if you run canyons a lot that might become a liability.
