kick @$$ gague pod

I was reading the "WRX Appeal" artical on the import tuner website and one of the interior pics was of the A-Pillar gague pod set up

http://www.importtuner.com/features/...wrx03_zoom.jpg

I've been trying to find a really good gague pod setup that compliments the existing interior well but isn't the OEM pod (I'm installing a video screen there)

this is the coolest looking Apilar setup I've seen
but how is it done?

I've seen "suction mounts" sold for that particular Blitz DC gague but I have a hard time believing that such a a quality car would suction mount the gaguges to the windshield

any insite would be great... Also what gague pods are people currently using?

Thanks

i have the autometer a-pillar and love it...i dont like the look of the one that you posted because there is nothing covering up the back...maybe that picture jus doesnt do it since its only a front view...

Blitz DC Gauges uses a suction cup or sticky tape to stick to wherever you are placing them. You need the gauges and the live unit.

Yep suction cups. Plus you can't get the gauges in imperial reading. Plus you can't get EGT.

Very sweet looking though!

I agree b/c u probably see the wires on the back of the pod if its just held on by suction cups..

I just ordered a guage pod for my A pilar off of autometer and love the look I also found some on Nopi's web site

Personally I don't like the look of those guages. I agree what do you do with the backs?
