60MM pillar gauge pod??!!?!?
Ok guys im going with the defi BF series gauges. But they come in 60mm. the problem is that i cant find any damn triple gauge pods for the pillar in 60mm they are all for 52mm..
Any Ideas?
Any Ideas?
When we install 60m guages in an A-pillar such as autometer we dremel it out. The DEFI guages WILL NOT fit perfectly flush because of the trim ring but you would have to stick your head behind the steering wheel to notice it. If you have any questions please feel free to give me a call.
I recommend seeing a triple guage pod with 3 60mm guages. The guages aren't the smallest and a 3rd would be mainly for looks. Youd have to lean your head way back to look at it, unless your hella tall and have the seat all the way back.
Here's mine with 2 of them. I think its still clean and not overdone. And this is where i mounted the Link

3 52mm on the pillar isn't bad, i exaggerated a lil with the lean the head back thing but a friend of mine has a G35 with 3 60mm and it seems like that top one is just way out there. The 52's look good tho.
Thought it would be impossible without damaging the pod, but it was really easy to do.
As mentioned I used a Dremel with a sandpaper attachment. I removed the lip by sanding the inside until the lip was gone, then slowly kept widening the hole making sure to constantly test fit until ..voila!!! Took me about an hour.
Very, very nice setup. Very clean. I like it.
I also have a Willow Interior and the same gauge pod. All of my sensors are HKS and wired into my F-CON, but by the time I got around to ordering the gauges, the ones I needed were no longer available. I guess since introducing the CAMP II, HKS does not feel it needs to offer gauges anymore. As for me, I would rather look at traditional gauges than an LCD display. All of the data is displayed in the Navigator, but displaying anything more than two readings on the small display is a waste because you can't read them quick enough while running on the track.
I am debating between adding a CAMP II or buying Defi gauges and sensors. It seems a waste to have two sensors each measuring the same readings, though, and I already have the HKS sensors.

If anyone has matching 52mm or 60mm HKS Fuel Pressure, Oil Pressure and Oil Temperature gauges for sale, I am interested in buying these.
If you only have one or two of the gauges I need, I am NOT interested unless you know where I can get the other one(s) that match and they also are available.
If you have these, please PM me a price.
