Guage pod combo question - Honda Prelude Forum

SLICK96 · 02-15-2002, 01:59 PM

Does anybody know if the Autometer dual guage pod will work w/ a single pod? I want 3 guages on my pillar, but Autometer only makes the dual & single pods for our cars, not the triple, as made for Civics & Tegs. Thanks...

I got a better idea, skip buying the single pod and do a little custom work. You can either mount the gauge in the A/C vent, all you need for that is a piece of plastic to house it. Or, you can do what I did for my N20 gauge, which is mount it in the tweeter housing. Go to my website and scroll down till you see the gauges. It will save you money and it gives a custom look. Be careful not to rip the cloth, I did. I am going to buy a sheet of carbon fiber and re-cover the housing. Good luck.

Hey PreludeNYC, I think i e-mailed you before asking how you did that custom work, you wouldnt tell me exactly, but i figured it all out pretty quickly. It looks good, thats where i want boost to go.

Either way, you cant go wrong with either custom look.

Did y'all take your A/C out? I'm referring to the guys who put a guage in their driver's side door A/C vent?
