gauge pod

Any one know where to find an overhead gauge pod that goes in the center of the t-tops for the TTA? My buddy saw one on a car on ebay and never got a response from the seller on where he got it from. I see lotek makes one for the GN but not for the TTA.

Never seen one so can't help you on that one. Not sure how convinient it would be with the gauges up there as you would have to take your eyes off the road. I got the Lotek A-pillar pod and you can see the gauges pretty well without really taking your eyes off the road, but the Lotek pillar fit is crap do a search and you can find my write up with pictures from when I installed mine earlier this year.

Yeah I did a pretty good search on these and couldn't find them anywhere. Here is what he is looking for, but for the regal.

I think its time for a trip to the junkyard pull a t-top panel an make this fit.

He already has the triple pod on the A pillar and its full with the boost, air/fuel, and knock gauge. He is looking to add more gauges but wants it to be clean.


Thanks

yeah what you're probably going to have to do is buy one for a truck or something like a Regal. We bought one for a Ford F250 for my friends Dodge Spirit turbo and all we had to do was make a siimple little trim on one side and then stick it up there.
