CP-E Gauge Pod Height

Hey guys, so I picked up the CP-E pod a while back and took this picture for all those trying to figure out if they want it or not. I'm somewhat taller at 6'2" but since the recaros sit so low it's not like I'm anywhere near hitting the headliner in the car. I took this picture so you can make a paper cut out, or carboard, or whatever you want and check the height to see if it's something you could deal with.

I will admit my first time driving with the CP-E pod I was like, "wtf, I can't see **** now." but after 2-3 drives in the car it's just normal and I don't even notice it blocking the view of my hood. It doesn't interfere with seeing cars in front of you, it will block your view of the hood directly in front of you and a little of the pavement in front of the car. It's just something you get used to and I really like that I can see my gauges without looking over at the A-pillar to check.

Yea, I have this as well and I really like being able to see my gauges without having to look at the A pillar. At first I had that oh **** moment of not being able to see, but it quickly goes away as you get used to the new view.

Yep, that was my exact feeling. Like oh ****, what have I done??? Then you realize it's really not that bad and it's kind of nice.

I loved it when I switched from a triple A pillar to the cp-e pod. So much easier to see the gauges and keep your eyes on the road.

Thanks, I'm looking for some gauges in My EVO X. Since I don't have any. I was thinking of this CP-E one, along with the 3 gauge pod that goes above the radio. And then maybe a pillar gauge pod, but I'm sure that's over kill for gauges.

Also, I'm 5'4
