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 biggrin.gif 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.

A right hand drive version of them would be a killer in the UK.
Nothing like that out for us anywhere
