Definately interested in the gauge pod to replace the clock! Was looking at doing it but dont know how to fibreglass. 2-3 52mm guages would be perfect.

something similar to the BA/BF XR guage pod on the dash(pretty much same spot as our clock) would be nice..

from memory, the BA/BF Falcon had a single pod, with a clock. the XR series had clock
XR6t had a clock and boostgauge(as an option)
now there are aftermarket 2 and 3 gauge pods that clip straight in.

i was thinking that this is probably a pretty similar shape and could be trimmed/cut down to size to fit right in?

(rather expenive genuine ones- there are cheaper a/m ones i cbf searchin for)

So now you should have that $5 handy after spending on mods to pay for membership ....

its suprisingly not all that far out of the way, and if i am messing with boost levels its on my mates Dyno...so no road hurtling...boost guages are a wank 90% of the time...

Custom one off job, apparently direct replacement...
Should be good to see how it fits just need to get some nice gauges to suit.

Already had some interest from others wanting me to take a mold of it but haven't yet decided if i'm going to have the time to take orders and sell them on via here.

you sure have alot of input for me considering you're not a mod...

You sure seem to have money to spend on mods, yet dodge membership when you post in the wrong areas claiming to be not financial enough... hmm....

Ease up gents. No need for aggression. Maybe he already had the gauge brad. Usually we are on top of people trying to dodge member fees by posting in the wrong spot. I'm sure he has been warned already and will do the right thing in the future.

Has anyone looked into this? I figure if you can fit the EvoX paddles then this shouldnt be to hard right? I would also assume a 4-6 model would fit better.
