Top dash tray guage pod

Anyone have this unit installed in their trucks?

Pics they can share?

Its the double guage pod that is designed to fit in the top dash tray above the radio console.

I've bought one on ebay, primarily to use for a tach.

And one last question, what guages do you guys use in it?

Here's mine:



I have the trans temp gauge and engine coolant gauge in mine. I'm about to remove mine though. I really only wanted the trans temp gauge, the other was just to fill the hole I got the EDGE a few months ago so I just use that to monitor the trans temp now.

Yes, it'll fit. But if you have the column shifter, the handle will be in the way while the truck in in "Drive".

I just received mine in the mail via Ebay.

How does it mount in? Just pressure fitted? Or did you use any screws or velcro/3m tabs?

I just removed mine but I had used velcro to hold it and it worked fine.
