+^1 I lime the stocki lookin so I'll get one

Gairloch · 08-29-2008, 02:12 AM

Do the gauges end up covering up the vents?

Very nice!

I wish I didn't have a screen in my dash now

mr2magic · 08-29-2008, 05:33 AM

Looks awesome! Maybe I can get a couple of takers from the german board!

jazzcornet · 08-29-2008, 06:35 AM

Pics of the installed product will be up later this afternoon.

Yes, this does delete your stock vents. I'm going to try to include with this the foam and blockoff plate for the a/c vent. Thus, allowing more pressue on the only other two active side vents. It shouldn't raise the price too terribly much

lsgheero · 08-29-2008, 06:43 AM

looks great, why can't the mk1 crowd get cool stuff like this lol I would love to get rid of the center peice where my radio is for several reasons.

1. way too easy to remove and steal the radio
2. breaks on the top seen way too many of them with the same crack as mine in the plastic.

oh well nice product mk2 guys. If i had a mk2 i would get one.

jazzcornet · 08-29-2008, 06:55 AM

If the market is good enough, I may just have to make a small r&d investment into making one for a mk1

rousegk7 · 08-29-2008, 07:09 AM

What size gauges 52mm? Would the CF one be pure CF or an overlay? I'm in for sure.

jazzcornet · 08-29-2008, 07:20 AM

Guage size will be 52mm (2 1/16")

The carbon fiber ones will be full carbon molds, not overlays

6xxx · 08-29-2008, 10:25 AM

ok i am in for the Carbon Fiber version but don't wanna give away my vents but i am thinking maybe there is a way for fit a circular vent from another car into one pod. I noe the 350z has a small circular vents that might fit there. just an idea i might do, but i am in for the CF one

jazzcornet · 08-29-2008, 10:57 AM

The only issue there will be the fact that the air will be blowing on the backs of your guages without the blockoff foam. Its up to you if you can accept that. I personally don't want my heat to be hitting my wires.

Oh, you guys are killing me here. I've never seen that piece in person, only in a single picture. The guy said it was a custom one-off made by a guy in japan. I don't even recall who's car it was on let alone who made them
