    youll have to fab one to fit or use one from an 88-91 CRX Si. I used a dual from a 99 eclipse but they all need a little bit of tweaking to fit good

    i think rob is using a 3 pod from a crx. Ive used a heat gun to bend/mold them a little bit and that seems to work good if youre careful

    honestly spending $40 on a pillar pod, and $200-$300 on guages shouldnt be your priority unless you already have nitrous or some other serious work done...

    since your a carbed guy i would suggest doing the following:

    free : vaccum line removal mod, there is an article in the how to section here on 3geez.com

    $104 if you dont provide a core : get a delta 272 cam, this woke my car up quite a bit, with really no adverse effects, stock-ish idle, reasonable low end...

    $250 : custom 2.5" catback exhaust from any old muffler shop...

    $80 : high flow cat off ebay (get a weld in, should be cheaper, and u can have them put it in at the muffler shop when u get your exhaust done)

    * also if you order a cat online ,u might as well save a buck and order the muffler online, the shops are usually at least twice as much money for the same product..

    $200 : pacesetter header / justins header $? : will really open up the topend...

    at this point thats about $600 in mods, and your accord will be about 1 second faster in the quarter mile lol... terrible... if you really want performance, you should rebuild your motor, get higher CR pistons, and a sturdy valve train, and go with a custom manifold and some good carbs...

    have fun.. and dont bother with guages yet... they are useless (unless you are talking oil P, and water T (most people want AF/ vaccume, and other pointless ones...)

    thats cool... at least those are good guages,water and oil are great since we have no way to monitor otherwise...

    i used a CRX dual pillar (for sale, 20 shipped if you want it) and without modification it fits "ok", good enough i would say, and i am usually sort of picky about that type of stuff...

    i also had a triple guage holder made, i bought the console with the tape holder, and made a face that would hold the gauges... i will sell you that too if you want it (blue) for $30 shipped

    if your interested i can getcha pics

    no worries man..

    the pillar pod is only a 2 guage pod
    and am i understanding you that you dont want the console piece either?

    if not i guess you have dibs on the console,'acessence' and the a pillar pod is still for sale
