^^^thats the one i was looking at, but wanted to see if anyone had it and if it matched the other pillars. my other option was the glowshift pod thats sold on ebay.

i really dont want to get a pillar pod, but seems like i have no choice since i have a flipscreen tv deck and want to run 3 gauges that i can easily monitor without taking my eyes off the road, so the cubby hole area is out of question and a dual steering column mount is out as well, plus i will be running aem gauges, so all the defi mounts are out, which basically leaves me with no choice, unless anyone has another idea??

The Rexpeed center triple gauge pod. Looks great. Fits right into the curve in the middle of the dash. Lots of people on here have them. I have one but haven't bought the other two gauges yet. It's nice because it doesn't obstruct your view out the front window.

^^^is this one only for defi gauges or would it work with the aem gauges (plan on running boost, a/f, and oil pressure)?

what i really want to do is custom mount them under my deck where the hvac controls are and then move the hvac to the cubby hole area, but i dont know anyone that just sells a hvac relocation kit. i dont want the orbital kit as i have no need for the 7" radio mount.

I would imagine it works on all gauges. The universal gauge sizes are 52mm and 60mm. Rexpeed offers BOTH. Heres a link to someone using the Rexpeed cluster. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=247019 Looks great.

I believe I have seen relocation kits too.

thanks for the link, do you know who sells the relocation kits or have any links to one? that would definitely be my first choice. as for the rexpeed pod, it looks nice with defi gauges since they can be linked and use only one wire into the vent, but i havnt seen any pics of other gauges and how the wiring looks. i just dont want it to look crappy since i wont be running defi gauges.

This is my favorite way to put gauges in the Evo. Right in sight for ease of tuning!

^^i was looking at that one, but seems like it blocks a good part of the instrument cluster. plus i want to run an oil pressure gauge as well. right now all i got is an autometer carbon pod on the steering column with an aem boost gauge.
