I have a gage pod in my 97 from autometer. Got it through the local auto parts store for $52 total. Pretty common part; required a little trimming but works well and has the full RICE look and everything... so I can totally blend in here in Vancouver. My boost gage is a $2 unit from a marine used surplus store. Pressure gage is a pressure gage... anything will do.

Is that a double or trible pod? I see them on ebay for ~$30, but they're all double. I want a triple pod for:

Boost
Vacuum (veggie fuel filter)
Temperature (vegetable oil)

My wife isn't a big fan of the PSI gauge I have taped to the dash right now :wink:

Ya, mine's a double; if you see them on ebay for $30usd it'll be dam near $50CAD to your door. I think GlowShift on ebay has them for $10 but they have a bunch of gay policies for international buyers.
