I'm in the process of building my wiring harness for my new Autometer gauges, I decide to go out and get some measurements withe triple gauge pod above the rear view mirror. It won't fit!

With the pod in place, I can't adjust the rear view mirror so I can see out of it. I do have the fancy rear view that auto dims, if it matters...

I didn't want to use the pillar mount because I want something more factory looking and I have tweeters mounted in my pillars. I would rather not use the 650 dash since I'm building a console extension to mount my ham radio, but I just might have to do it.

I'd rather not get a glowshift 3-n-1, but I just might have to.

Has anyone had the pod not fit above the mirror?

 

yup, i just lowered it (mirror) a bit.

 

How did you do that?

 

Mine fit, but I think what guys do is heat the mirror button with a lighter or cigar torch and twist/remove the button, then remount it lower, making room for the pod. You could also check with an auto glass place for pricing.

 

what pushes you away from the 3 in 1 glowshift gauge?

 

The size of the gauge and the idea of mountig just one gauge. I like symmetry.

 

I like it looks good. My buddy has one and it a nice cheap option. I just installed 3 glowshift max tow gauges in a 3 pod pillar a few weeks ago.
