Gauge pod options
So I recently purchased some AEM gauges (boost & digital wide band). I started searching for gauge pod options and it seems like the only two options that are available are the perrin steering column ones and the Agency power CF gauge pod that mounts below the heater and ac controls. Are EVO X owners really only limited to those two for the moment? can anyone recommend anything else?

There are the standalone ones that you can mount anywhere you want as well. But I think the best ones out right now are the ones that Memphisforce makes. They are A-pillar pods that come in OEM finish or black, I believe. I'll get his website here in a sec....

Edit: Here you go.

Those do look good, but isn't the price a bit steep. You also have to send in your own A-pillar.

The other option is you could buy the OEM pillars they sell and have them mod that. Of course, that increases the price $50.

Memphisforce's pillar pods definitely look like the best option out there, but I don't know if I could rock the pillar pods. They make the car look too F&F to me. I'd rather mount them stealthily elsewhere, though these pods are tempting.

I kind of like this solution, probably going with this setup for $18 bucks.

Yup, I copied that idea myself:



The pod actually fits in that area stunningly well. Some double sided tap will be used later, when I get another gauge.
