Re:More on the 2nd Gen Dash Pod

Count me in! Will it come with or without the holes for mounting it to the dash? Personally I don't like the idea of screwing it to the dash. I understand why you do but I would like the option.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Ryan

Re:More on the 2nd Gen Dash Pod

That looks great. It should be easier to read than the A-pillar. I want one!

Re:More on the 2nd Gen Dash Pod

So what's the max for gauges, three or four available? I'm thinking that I'd probably want 4 gauges: egt, fp, trans temp, and boost. Am I on the right track here. Bear in mind that I have an auto transmission. The nice thing about owning a quad is that I have plenty of room for my George Foreman grill.<br><br>Heck, waiting for Christmas, Halloween couldn't be soon enough. <br><br>~Dave

Re:More on the 2nd Gen Dash Pod

I think the unit will be shipped with four screws for attaching to the facia and this will be up to the end user on how they would want to attach it. I know it looks great when it is glued on with no screws too. <br><br>Thats why I am leaving it as a 'do-it-yourself' product for installation.<br><br>It will not come with holes in it...this way a person can put the correct size holes for the brand of gauges they use and they can position gauges and switches the way they want for their own personal preference.<br><br>Just remember, the front facia that clips to the dash does have to be cut for the gauges and the pod to fit.<br>We hope to have pricing for the pods and new facias in the next few days. Just waiting for the final details on the molds and packaging.<br><br>I think the center console is a Great place for a George Foreman Grill...Run it with an inverter and cook on the fly. <br><br>Probably have to be careful about smoke in the cab as opposed to smoke outside with the diesel now.

Re:More on the 2nd Gen Dash Pod

You would think that someone would come up with a way to run all those drippings from the George Forman Grill to the engine in order to get that &quot;grill boost&quot; thing going. &quot;Hamburger pre-injection&quot; waddyathink?
