want the autometer steering pod...

...but I noticed there seem to be 2 type floating around...smooth or textured. I want the textured one as it resembles the stock dash better. Any words on this and who carries which version?

vivid racing has a carbon fiber one. I had it in my 03. It looked very nice.

yeah, I'm staying away from carbon fiber, trying to stay with the stock look. I also think that one put it right in the center, doesn't it? The single pod from autometer puts it off to the side somewhat and doesn't completely block (although it does black the speedometer somewhat) the gauges...

I got the textured Autometer Pod from a local speed shop for 30 bucks. I probably could have found it cheaper but Pops gave a Gift Certificate for there

Autometer Single Steering Column Gauge Pod
With this Gauge Pod it allows you to concentrate on the road and still maintain visual contact with your gauge. This pod mounts to the stock steering column.
