Autometer dash pod issues

[Sprayer84]

Who else is using this? I got mine from a fellow member and it doesn't seem to sit flush with the dash? I am about to ditch it and go to roush pods but I'm afraid I won't be able to see them without a lot of time off the road. The triple pillar gauges are not really my style so these seem like my only options. I currently have an AEM TRU-Boost and AEM wideband, still trying to find a good deal on an aeroforce interceptor

Get an SOS dash pod? I have two roush vent pods and like them.

what is your concern with the pods? ive had them but doing it again i think id go sos pillar(i know not what you want) from my experience though viewing the gauges with the pods was never an issue.

CDC here, I added the holes for the warning lights.

I have installed 2 Autometer dash pods. Both sit flush. The two tabs in back have to go in the vent row closest to the interior. if you go to the row next to the windshield, in bows up.

I think mine may be bent, It looks bowed.

Looks bowed just by laying it on the dash?

Pretty sure that's not right

ummm.. pretty sure you nailed it. Not supposed to look like that. Mine started to do stupid things after about a year and is garage kept. I was happy with the autometer dash pod initially but starting to hate it now. Fit is going to crap, it makes a ton of racket and shit. Going to pull it and buy a sos pillar pod. I have installed several of the sos pods and think they are better in every way. SOS makes a nice product.

I am very with my SOS dash pod. It has held up fine to high summer temps.

05Stroker....You want your car fast as hell so it scares you. Maybe a few more gauges will do it

LOL, Hell I dont have time to look at them all now!


Going down the track the only one that matters is the WB or if a bright ass blue LED lights up. Then its time to shut it down.

Oh and by the way, I fear no gauge...


OP, I would be sending that gauge back to where it can from. That is FUBAR!

Warning lights for fuel pumps? I have the Autometer phantom WB with the peak recall also. So far a nice unit. I was also thinking of adding a second one just like you have setup.. That would mean adding a pillar pod and putting my boost gauge in that along with a Nitrous gauge.

BTW... is that a IAT gauge in the middle between the vents? If so which one is it and you just tap into the manifold?

Damn.. like the speedo too

I really need to quit looking at your car

I like the on-dash triple. Ive had it for several years now. I use a Roush vent gauge pod for my safe inf. flow gauge..

One of the lights is for a low fuel prssure warning light. If the fuel pressure drops below drops below 39 psi, the light comes on.

The other is for a low fluid level warning on the water/meth setup.

I also have the same type of light on the pilar pod at the oil pressure gauge. If the oil psi drops below 20 psi it comes on.

More or less if you see blue LEDs, you get out of the gas and shut it down asap.

The gauge in the middle of the vents is the AEM Trueboost.

And yes, the speedo is awsome!

Sweet! I just swapped to Fore return system with their dual 450's. I hooked up a hobbs switch for my second pump but hate the fact I never know what the second pump is doing. I may just run a led from the hobbs. Really like the idea of the low pressure light also.

So is that the saleen speedo?
