Gauge Pods - ScrappIron68 - 12-05-2014
We have recently bought 2 thermo-forming machines for our fab shop. I have found it to be troublesome to find a gauge pod for the 300d. I'm trying to figure on if enough people would want this to justify making the molds. Also looking for ideas on how they should look, and where people would want them located on the car. Please post pics of ideas. Thank you.

gauge pods are hard to fit in W123. i think the only good place may be the switch panel (switches can potentially be relocated into the glovebox).

A formed pod that would mount on the dash above the center vents would work well on W123, 124 and 201.

I'd be interested in a dual gauge pod located on the left speaker hole, possibly recessed a bit. I would then relocate my speakers most likely to the side kick panels.
Btw - this is for a w123

What about attaching gauges to the A pillar ??

I also was thinking about on the roof in the middle like in alot of truck running around this area. But i really like the speaker drive side idea. we should have the machine up and rolling in a few weeks, going to Indiana tomorrow to get the last one. Will keep posted on trial runs and stuff. thank you for the input.

I have my extra gauges mounted to the steering column, a nicer pod for there might be nice

This, we need this, this would be incredibly awesome

yes that's what i want. It'd be cool if the guages were tilted towards the driver though. i never trust a guage i cant see straight on.
