I NEED YOUR OPINION SUGGESTION AND PHOTOSHOP SKILLS!!!
I am trying to add a gauge pod and fould a Mitsubishi dash top triple gauge pod.
This is from A Mitsubishi Decila! As it is not set at an angle so the gauges are not
tilted so it looks the part.
But I need help with this as my sight does fluctuate at the moment, so I need
suggestions on placement and possibly how it looks when it is in place. Rthere is
a lip under the gauge plate which would slide under the dash pannel it would be
mounted on. I will trim the face structure to help. The rear cover in this case
doesn't match the colour of the dash nut I do have one that does.
Here are two comments from other forums on my build thread, so suggestions welcome
One idea with a dash pannel off the car but whrn in situe it will look different!
There are three sets of photos, bare dash, first idea of location, then second idea of
location.
Please remember the pod would sit lower than it is and could be worked to fit into that
panel better. So please let me know what you think thanks
Please nore that it took me over 2 houts to write this taking breaks when my sight gets
that bad I can't distinguise whats is on screen!

Either would do, though the closer one might be better simply because there is less of it in your eye line when driving.
I have to say I think that pod is a better bet than the other ideas as it looks about the right size already.

If it was mine, I would have the front of your new pod sitting over the step in the dash with the panel the clocks fit in to level with it. This would involve trimming the body of the pod down and routing out the step slightly to clear the clocks I was fitting in to the pod.
I would also be tempted to see if the existing dash could be colour matched to allow your new pod to be sprayed to blend in.
