Will have to wait and hear from Nibbles as he had to pop back and get measured up again as 1st mould didnt fit correctly.

I want one too

I havnt looked on there site at other models but what kinda price we looking at for a single gush pillar pod?

 

[nibbles]

Went on Saturday and this baby fits so there going to make the first one very shortly,sorry for delay been so busy at work.
Will post some pics of the mould in position.

I went for the carbon air vent gauge. I got the drawings from hubbly bubbly (unfortunately no autocad) that gave a rough idea how the plates had to look.
Got myself an omori (in fact a few ) stepper and pressure driven boost meters from the USA.
Measured everything and a few days ago the carbon plates arrived and where glued together. Everything fitts 1a without the need of filing od adjusting anything.

Will fit it all next week.

Drawings are of now free available at the producer in the UK and carbon plates can be ordered there if someone feels the need....

cheers nibbles look forward to seeing it

 

[Cupra Jim]

awesome work Nibbles, Guess i start looking for a guage to complement the pod. Anyone got any suggestions?

 

[Deleted member 53697]

any pictures? you might wanna hold off buying a guage till you've seen it; it might look crap!

 

[P13ULC]

Will it be trimmed in the fabric the standard one is? Will look stupid if not, made my own in my own in my last car and got both side flocked so the matched but can never get the same shade as the roof lining.

 

[nibbles]

Well as you can see this is only the mould

As you can see from this pic
The final pod will return round to the rubber and tuck underneath not as its showing there

I have blanked out my glass so you wont see the inside of the pod

That looks awesome, answers my question earlier regarding trimming it to match both A-Pillars.
How is it held in place?

Looks strainge with the little triangle window masked out, wonder what some dark tint will look like?

To be fair the window will always be marmite.
When I first did it I didn't like it but it's grown on me

TBF the window is a waste of time anyway.
I definately want one of these, much better looking than the other ones shown in the thread.

Lee, did Nomad give you any idea when these will be ready?

 

[P13ULC]

I'm sure it will grow on me, I hope cause that gauge mount looks good.

 

[K1Shane]

Like the way the little window is blanked by it tbh. It serves no other purpose

Any news on a multi gauge pillar?

 

[Cupra Jim]

great work, i'll be ordering one

 

[Deleted member 53697]

Looks quite nice actually - looking forward to seeing the 100% finished product

I think it's all about visibility, seeing as the pillar is large anyway.
You don't want to create to much of a blind spot

 

[CupraLee K1]

Ok

Any idea of a price they are going to be?

Poss Group Buy?
