This is the 3 attemt to build the pods for the celica... Had this idea floating around long enouth till SnapshotGT came and kicked me
 Well - had to give it a try.. This is the center dash pod, exactly this one in pics is still a prototipe - and there are few minor issues with it - so the second one im building will have everything fixed. This one sits a bit too low, and gauges arent directed towards the driver as much as i wanted. The new one will have the Clock visibility issue fixed, and aimed more at the driver + gauges will sit a bit more higher. Looks will be the same. This one will be for 52mm gauges.Here are few pics - let me know what you guys think about this.       Its sits flush on the dash, just what in these pics i didnt wanted to glue it totaly, so i used only one strip of the double side tape.. And dont ask about the Triple A-pillar what you can see in these pics - i will write about it later once i will finish with it totaly. this one what is visible in pics was made for a client (my ex celica owner) and i will see if it will be posible to get it in prduction.   Romas -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...

The pod looks great.. would the gauges end up tilted somewhat up.. to have a better view for the driver?? and are they visible outside from normal driving?? for those who want to keep theirs "sleeper"
Good Job! |

He said that they will be adjusted in his post. And theres a good chance that no matter where you put 3 guages they wont be too hidden very well unless they are down in the center part of the car. --------------------  I am now a part of the ihavemorethen16gc club! |
