I am EXTREMELY interested!!!! I would prefer a pod to hold 3 gauges at 2 5/8" I have Auto-meter liquid filled mechanical Water Temp, Oil Pressure and Vacuum gauges. Can't trust electrical gauges. I was going to fab up an aluminum bracket to extend from under hood and bolt to the existing holes on the under side of hood for the windshield squirter. Can you have a 3 gauge pod for 2 5/8" gauges made? Are you just getting the 2 gauge pods made? Talk to me..

Thank You, Dave

I'm afraid they won't be able to produce any pods for the 2-5/8" gauge size -- they're just too large. We're going with a 2-gauge pod, simply because adding a third gauge at the top would put it right in your face when you're driving.

Any further word on how this project is coming along?

Well, "the list" hasn't gotten any longer, and I'm stalled out on the sale of my Bronco at the moment. There's no other way I'm coming up with the $1200 to foot this one, but as soon as there's a development I'll post it up.

P.S., thanks for the free bump, Gunner!

Just ran across this thread...is this still going? Any available?

Well, it's winter time again. Too cold to ride the Harley -- time to get some more work done on the T/A.

Bumping this thread to see if there's any further interest. I'm going to call LoTek tomorrow and see if the prices and minimum orders have changed in the last year.

If it's at all possible, I may just bite the bullet and buy these things out of my own pocket. Put them up for sale here and at 301G, then eBay...

The design will be similar to those in the link on the first page.

I've got a message in to my contact, waiting for a reply.
