do the radio relocation thing and add 3 gauges there.
done!

 

Here is a shot of the awesome tripple gauge pod in the STM evo:



This is what I will be doing when I start to mod my car.

 

here is a pic of mine and yes i hate it.... wish i would have done the relocation to the cubby or radio swap out!!!!

that looks nice. what brand is the gauge holder? how hard was the install? did you need to remove the stock plastic piece or does this go on top of it? is it drilled in or double-sided tape?

 

i plan on relocating the stock ones. however, i want additional for EGT and wideband

 

why not go with ONE gauge that does everything?
EGT, AFR, BOOST





i have it, i love it, does everything i need in one small package.

 

IMO the A-pillar pods are so played out. Everyone and their grandma has one. I think the cleanest is the 3 gauges w/ the radio relocation. Only problem with that is that you have to turn your head to actually look at them...thus taking your eyes off the road.

 

Thats the autometer kit. It slips over the stock plastic piece, you have to drill holes in the side of the OE one and use the plugs supplied in the kit to hold the two together. I may have used double sided tape as well, I can't remember right now. Installation is not that hard, I think it took my friend and I under an hour.
Hope that helped.

 

I have no problem with my gauge pods. And I have both the A-Pillar and a single Steering Column Pod.

People keep complain about the blind spot with the A-Pillar, but seriously, you have a bigger blind spot on the rears of the Evo than with the A-Pillar.

And sure the whole A-Pillar thing is "played out", but there is a valid reason. Because it works. I don't care if people think its ricer, it works, it functions and it fits the job. What else is "played out" about it?

I'll take a shot of my Defi Setup after I get back from work tonight.

 

that helps. thank you

 

I didn't use the plugs, they kept falling out.

I used doubled sided tape and and put in black zip-ties from the inside, with a zip tie gun to keep it together. Its really clean. I'll take close-ups of that too.

 

Any one have pics of the radio relocation? Every one says to go with it but i can find pictures anywhere.

 

I got it from lancer shop, it was easy to install. it is drilled in 3 places, 1 on each side and 1 for the wires and vacuum/boost line.

word, the zeitronix setup is great. i hate a pillar and steering column gagues. with the zr2 or the lcd screen like i ahve, u get accurate boost, egt, afr all in one nice screen. pretty much everythign u need. i modded my pda/cellphone holder in my car to place it:

 

Because you can only look at one thing at at time. And I have yet to have a zeitronix product that holds up more than a month or two.
