gauge pod questions.for all who can help me please - Honda Prelude Forum

I did a search and found nothing...

Autometer now makes a dual gauge pod for the 4th gen. But it's on back order. i read you could mod an accord or integra pillar pod to fit.

What mods are required?
which gen accords/tegs to use?
And can I use the 3 pod full pillar units?

i'd like to know too...

i asked what pod everyone uses in a previous thread by absolut, but no one cared to answer my question.

i've heard before that people have modified the pods from 94-97 accords but since then i heard autometer was making pods specifically for our 4th gens.

jason used the pod for the 4th gen prelude. His was on backorder for months and months.

Cool so we know it's the 94-97 accord, thats one answer..now how do they need to be modded to fit?

I have been told 2-4 months..., but if I can rig aaccord pillar to fit without it looking too ghetto then I'm do that

I ordered mine from Preludeparts.com there was a back order for it about 2 weeks, worth the wait, i'd just wait and get the one thats right for your car.

i ordered mine from summitracing.com... they shipped it the same day and since i am close the the warehouse i got it the next day. It isn't the full pillar, pretty cheap thing. I wish Lo-Tek made one for us. But yeah I got the autometer with 2 pods, i put a/f and oil pressure in. Worth the wait i guess.

I'll answer this one. I have used a 94-97 Accord guage pod. i did the mod 2 years ago when autometer had no intention of making one for our gens. All you have to do is use a heat gun and mold it onto you A-pillar.

It fits just like the pods they have for the 4th gen lude. You can't tell if it was molded in my car.
