Well, your friend Honda05 (sorry don't know your names) bounced out $50 shipped and I would pay that.

Re: Custom Gauge Pod

thinking about i would be losing money just by making one.. i dont think anybody else wants one.. It would cost alittle over 100 bucks for the stuff and by selling one for 50 bucks i would be losing money

Re: Custom Gauge Pod

OK, well if you're serious about making a batch, post up a group buy thread for it. I'm down for $50, but not for $100. I can justify $50, any more than that and I'll just make one myself.

Re: Custom Gauge Pod

Im not sure of the rules on this site, but im sure there is some site sponsor fee. 50 is a really cheap price considering the time that went into it. The problem is if the mold is made then only 1 person buys it then he is in the hole 50bux. I guess he could always put them on ebay.


Also to address the not practical statements. Im sure all you fiddle with the radio, cell phones among other things as well. How is this any different? The a pillar pod obstructs your view like it or not. This keeps the gauges out of the way when you dont need them yet still accessable. It only takes a quick glance to read a gauge if it takes you any longer than that, you might want to check in disability and claim that check for being retarded. When you grab your drink out of the cup holder im sure most of you look at the cup then grab . The glance about the same time frame as monitoring a gauge

Re: Custom Gauge Pod

There won't be a sponsor fee for someone selling a few things when they are not a business. I understand $50 is very low considering the time and materials spent to just make one, so if it's not cost-effective to make a mold, then I'll just mimic the idea and make it myself. That being said, you guys did a great job on it and I hope we can get a few more folks seriously interested to make it worth the time and money.

Re: Custom Gauge Pod

I'm not a two tone fan, but I really think you're the first to try it. Looks like the G35 interiors like that.
