    Just wondering if anyone made any custom gauge pods. If you can provide some pictures that would be great. I've seen the flex mount and the lotek pilar pods but I'll be living in a place where there's high theft rates and wanna keep my boost and AF gauge hidden or semi hidden. I've got some ideas but I wanna build on my ideas with the help from you guys and see what you guys have made.

    That leaves my design out !!

    Mine are installed right on top of the dash almost inline with the radio .

    Easy to see without taking my eyes off the road.

    Where had you planned on installing yours ??

    I'm thinking about converting the two cup holders in front the gear selector into my two pods. I think that will be hidden enough so people won't notice it at first glance

    The FlexMount is actually pretty nice. The only downside is I have to move my head over a couple inches to see some of the lights on the dash. #firstworldproblems
