Fiberglassed/molded this myself as at the time I was in need of another gauge, but have since changed my mind. I have a little time wrapped into making it look factory, with the exception of my alarm LED.
It has been coated with undercoating to provide a factory texture, then painted with SEM graphite interior paint. The paint is just slightly lighter than the factory graphite, so I'll be including the bottom portion also as I'm picky and painted it too. Like I said, you could never tell once installed, and some armor-all darkened them up perfectly.
There is a hole where I flush mounted my red alarm LED indicator, in which I'll be including a brand new LED with.
NOTE: I wanted the piece to be as flush as possible, and not block the factory gauges. At my height I could still see the speedo/tach perfectly, with the exception of maybe 0-500 RPMs. I keep my tilt kept pretty much in the middle, but warning, the column will no longer tilt all the way up without the pod hitting the bezel behind it. Really nothing I could do about that, but I never move my column so no huge deal to me.
Onto the pics-
Mocked up-
Price-
$40+shipping without gauge (pod to cut up and mold costed me $20 from Autozone+time+materials)
$60+shipping with brand new Autometer Ultra-Lite Boost/Vacuum gauge (steal! gauge was $60 alone, I just want both gone)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Next up is a 2.4l turbo manifold, purchased from the canadian seller on eBay,
this auction here. Jason (qwik2k2z24) has been using this manifold for almost a year now without any issues what-so-ever and can attest to it. I waited almost a month and it just now showed up.
As said, it's brand new, I opened it to make sure it was the 2.4l manifold, and closed it back up.
I paid $195 shipped, will sell for
$185 shipped. I eat shipping+$10, you benefit from the same manifold and quick shipping. I had them put this auction up/make this manifold for me.

both are sweet deals, ied be all over that gauge pod if i could get in and out of my car without tilting the wheel all the way up.. i saw the final product in person, its flawless.
also that manifold held up my turbo/downpipe/cherry bomb from kzoo to lake orion. no hangers at all. its a strong manifold for sure.

I had many people inquire about this! Sorry wish I had the time, and truth be told it came out awesome....but it's not something I honestly enjoy doing. That piece happened to be for myself at the time so I didn't mind. Sure you know what I mean! Wished I could produce 10 or so to sell, just not right now.
