Steering column gauges

M-I-C...K-E-Y....sorry, I couldn't resist...

Looks great.

I have done the same thing w/ 2 Autometer cups. 1 for boost gauge, and 1 for AEM UEGO. I'd have put them on the pillar, but 2 on the pillar is enough. I tried a tripple pod for a little while but the top gauge was a bitch to see.

1st page joe, its where the word "these" is highlighted
Hmm this is a good alternative for those people not wanting to fiberglass their columns. You know who you are!

Or it would make a really easy mold for a first time fiberglass project, i think that's what I'm gonna do

Nice idea, I like it more then the pod pillar I was going to use

I did this on my car a long while ago but with the pedestals, I love it. Although it doesn't always work for the reason i put them there (stealth) As the last time I was pulled over in the supra the cop said "He's got gauges and shit everywhere in there!" :ugh2:

 

[OneJoeZee]

those are nice as well. wehre did you get those ones?

 

[yaitsme]

gonna put the pod on the right a little lower

Gonna be spending a lot of time at 130mph+, are ya!?
/sarcasm


LOL - the v.p. of the fiberglass-crazy club approves!

Splitfire and Autometer sell cups with pedestals for cheap.

Summit racing, they are made by autometer.

are those guages angled? in the drivers point of view it would be very hard to see those guages if they wernt angled

i like those holders too, but i got mine on ebay for $5 each.

 

[SoupedUpSupra]

they're not angled, nor do they need to be IMO.

Mine looked like Soupedup's setup and I'll post some pics of my new gauge setup as soon as I have something to show

Nice idea, but I have my PLX wideband velco'd to the top of the cover...

I need to add a good oil pressure, and I'd like a oil temp too, so this might work out if the PLX would fit there along with these two cups/holders...

Nice idea. (Especially if you use some of the new short electrical guages, the cups could be very shallow... Time to go hunting for custom Omori gauges again..)

I had this setup for the last five years using autometer gauge cups. This gauge arrangement is old school. A very nice way to do it so you can actually see the gauges at a glance.
