I heard that they were going to come out with this for our trucks. It only fits the auto? Damn, I'm going to have to get a new truck so I can us this thing. WTF!

I think it's much better looking than the A-pod. Keep-em guessing!

hehe now i can have 5 gauges. i just love knowing whats going on. so far i have

-boost
-air/fuel
-fuel pressure

if i get the new pod

-Trans temp
-intake temp (would like to see how well my intercooler is working. and i plan to get the NX ntercooler kit. so then i will know how much cooler the temps actually get.)

my main problem is knowing which gauges to put where. they are all so important to me.

I wonder how this compares with the Autometer steering column pod? I did notice the Autometer pod only holds one gauge and this holds two gauges.

99,

The ONLY beef I have with the steering column pod is it blocks the view of the odometer/trip.

3 gauges in the A-pillar, 1 in steering column, and now 2 in the dash bezel...

would that be considered Rice?

If I am not mistaken, Autometer does NOT make this bezel for our F-150 rides. I called them personally after being told of their having one. They tolld me without any reservations, that they do not have one and have no plans for the immeadiate future to make one.
The one they DO have, which looks similar, is for the F-250 powerstroke. Which by the way has a little different setup on their cluster.

WIll keep you posted.

Dang....does anyone know for sure ? I would like to have one of these rather than waving a "come arrest me flag " to the police with 3 gauges on my a-pillar.

Hello guys...
Nosdog...the link below is the thread you are refering to...

Beekcake Pod Thread

He has the 3-pillar pod and the single over the steering column pod. I did not find where he had the instrument panel bezel pods.

Red00Lightning: All one can do is go to the source. I did, and Autometer said no several times now.

anyways a couple of days I'll let you know.

Late....
