So I've been looking for quit awhile now for a dash pod for my oil temp, fuel press, and nitrous press. gauges and I think I finally found one, and for the price if it doesn't work o well I'm not out a whole lot...
Universal Triple Gauge Console Dash Pod

So heres my question, i think with the way the dash slopes I might have to prop the rear up a bit to level it, what would you all do to achieve this feat. while making it look good?

i guess you could lay it down on a belt sander at the desired angle if it needed adjustment. just be careful of the plastic not to heat it up to the melting point, maybe take your time with it. then come back and clean up the edges. maybe shoot it with a can of paint to match the interior and a clear coat and it might look like it came crom the factory that way.

I have one. I'm going to install it upside down under the radio/ash tray.

I like the idea of grinding it but it buy the picture it looks like i might be interfering with the cups... IDK. I guess I'm going to have to wait until it shows up then look into making it work

I thought about that, but I have a couple switches and a low fuel pressure led under on that slope.
