gauge install
Well, over $$$.00 later and they do look good. Just a short note, if you choose to use this pod you will need to splice all the wires to make them reach. I did however send photo's to ISSPRO and let them know the wires are too short for this application. Now all I have to do is let LG know how crappy their phone is for picture taking.

Where did you get those from? Mine came from Diesel Manor and didn't have any problems with the wiring reaching the overhead pod.

They were mailed from ISSPRO. Not sure how you ran your wires to make them reach, but when I left the sending unit I run straight back across the engine to the fire wall, across the firewall over to the plug for the clutch and through the firewall and up the pillar and across to the gauges. Maybe there is a shorter route. They are Fuel,Pyro,Boost,Trans.

Sounds like you ran them just like mine. Sorry it was a bit of a pain, but I sure like the overhead mount. Looks really good in there, congrats.

Looks good! I love my overhead mount. Did you have to move your mirror anchor?
