I have a 98 S70 T-5 and I bought the Gaugepods.com single pod for my boost gauge. I put it in a while back, but I recently had an idea. I want to take out the housing that holds the heater vents above the climate control ***** and make it a gauge pod for 2 or 3 gauges. I was just wondering if anyone has done it and if you have any advice. It was hard enough to route the vacuum hose to the a-pillar, how much harder do you think it will be to route it to the center of the car?! Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

I will be a pain to run the hose/wires.
If all else fails maybe find an extra set of vents and put the guages in the vents.

 

You could have RodPods custom make you a A-pillar gauge pod that actually looks OEM.

 

Anyone know where I can get some of the vacuum hose that is a bit more flexible? I almost have it worked out, but the hose keeps getting kinked.

 

Taking the entire upper dash out isn't that hard, so I would think routing the plumbing wouldn't beall that difficult.

 

Just find some rubber vacuum line through the tough areas. Or slip the rubber hose over the hard plastic line and it might not kink.
