The only prob i have with the pods is that, most owners will just buy them and put guages with worthless information in them, and that looks so retarted when like gs eclipses have gauges and they have no turbo, i think two pods is enough what do you need three for?

id like to have many gauges for me to make sure everything is going good once i go turbo. the 3 popular choice for gauges for boosted people are prob (oil pressure, boost, egt or wideband o2)

I like where it's located, it seems like you can still see the road without a problem.

Let's see it with some nice gauges.

I figure that the pillar is so wide stock anyways, any gauages wont really make it worse... Its not like they will stick out but maybe an inch into view because of the angle they will be... Hopefully anyways. Either way, Im down for one.

LOL you can pretty much count me out on this one. i don't think i can have pillar pods due to the side air bags =/. Oh well i can always get the blitz pods that you can mount anywhere =).

Hey, that looks good. If you do change your mind and decide to sell 2 pods as well that'd be cool. Otherwise I'll put a clock in one. ;) All kidding aside - the placement is great - I agree they could be tilted up a smidge!

Can't wait!

..... ..definetly..i think that it would be sweet if someone(creative compacts) would make a kit for that little cubby hole i think a 2 gauge pod would be perfect and it would look alot cleaner..

Ack! The pillar is already hard to see around. The better bet would be around the pillars for the guage cluster. That would own!

that is where i would like to mount mines, but it seems like CC are set on making the Apillar pods. having another option besides the Apillar pods would be a plus.

ATI will have gauge pods that house 2 gauges on the top of the steering wheel column for the tC coming soon. those for xA/xB are already available. check www.autotechinteriors.com for details. I will be selling those as soon as they are finished.
