Sedan gauge pods?!

Does ANYONE know if there are gauge pods specifically for the sedan? Custom or whatever as long as they fit and look good. The coupe pods do not fit properly. Help please.

bump for gearbox.

Didn't we determine a while ago that a 97 Prelude single gauge pod fit the 7th gen sedans or something?

I used autometer's dual guage pod for 95 civics, with a little bit of trimming here and there it fits, im going to mold it in to my pillar when i have time. Since you said u didnt mind if it was custom, takes time cause its custom obviously. Goodluck

^i wouldn't deal with propods...last time i dealt with them, i tried to buy a 2 gauge pod a-pillar replacement from them..i wanted grey and for the sedan..i called them asking if it would fit, they said yes....when i got it, it was a 3 gauge pod in black and it was only for the coupe..from what i understand, no one makes an a-pillar replacement for the sedan..the only choice u have is to buy the gauge bezel that goes around ur cluster...

gearbox, if u want the gauge bezel around ur cluster, i have one for sale...lemme know if u want it, we'll work something out...

Thats strange everytime i call propods they go out of there way to help me. They even told me that it was for a 2 door, I gave it a shot and it feets pretty good. Shipping from then was extremely fast. Dont know what happed with yours but i would buy from propods in a second.

I don't like the fitment of those pods. There's a gap and they don't match the pillar on the back side. I want good fitment

Oh I did get an 03-04 cluster. The numbers actually light up white not blue. It just has blue outline rings around it. Not all that great compared to what I already have imo.

Are you guys set on mounting it on the pillar? You could always fabricate a custom mount elsewhere, like next to the cigarette lighter thing or whatever. Or you could put it above the stereo on the dash board, like this Lamborghini:

Iron: The easy way to do that is do it like a 350z. Some fiberglass, a nice base screwed into the top of your dash, and some patience will make a nice little center guage "pod."

I'm considering one of these. They look slightly different so I'm wondering if anyone has seen these and how they look in person.
