Default Frog eye guage pod

I was looking at Arospeed website and found these. I haven't seen this before and I think it's a good idea for peaple who don't want to lose storage space.





2~3 on the A piller, 2 in the in-dash pods and 2 of these. This is what I'm gonna do when I need them.

I like the ones that go around the bottom corners of the gauge cluster. But, they aren't made for Eg's

So, I'm going with a DIY gauge pod in the stereo DIN and getting a new center console to mount the cd deck below

I would still like to see the one above installed

Is that just mounted onto of the dash? I don't think that is the type of pod that replaces the old one. Because if it sits onto of the dash.... one word.....GAY!!!

I can't imagine that replacing that plastic part that you will save any weight! Its just for looks.

The Autometer pod I have replaces the stock bezel. Some people ask me if I bought the car with the dash like that!

yeah, THAT is old, and many company makes it.
The frog eye pod goes top of the dash, right above the cluster.

What's so gay about. It looks clean and only thing that gay about it is the name frog eyes.
The space you save from it, you can still have some storage room left under the radio. If you don't want to drill the dash for guages, this is a good stuff.

Is that where that pod is supposed to go....on top of the dash. I think that would look dorky. I don't like how my boost gauge pod sits on the pillar. I would have prefered the whole pilar pod instead. I'd put the gauges in the center consol before there.

offcially gay. If they were just individual pods that you could slap on the dasht that would be ok, but having them connect in the center is completely useless and makes it look kinda ugly.
