Default Frog Gauges

So I was looking at gauge pods for Integras and I found Frog Eye gauge pods. http://www.matrixracing.com/BI12883Details.htm Where would this go? Above the gauge panel?

I have a guage bezel. I got it for $150 less than that goofy looking thing.

If you want guages, I would highly recommend the bezel method of mounting them.

Yea I like the bezel. This was the first time I had seen the frog eyes and I wasn't sure where they would go. Ontop of the dash would look :ghey: I'll be getting the bezel once I get a new (manual and hopefully teg) car and do some mods.

I don't know which is more rice: the frog eyes or the a-pillar pod. I quickly changed from my pod to the bezel because it looked like crap and attracted attention that I am trying to avoid with my sleeper look.

Does the bezel cover up the stock fuel and temp gauges? I haven't seen one up close but from the pictures of just the bezel it looks like it would.

It does a little but only the unnecessary parts of each gauge like low temperature for the coolant and full tank for gas. I will upload some pics of mine if you want when I get home from work.

I like that gauge pod thing the best out of the ones I've seen so far. It would be better if they tapered the end of the two pods flush so you could see all the gauges, but I don't know how deep your gauges are. I had been thinking it would be cool if you could find or fabricate your own pod for that empty spot below the cd player, glove compartment or where the clock is. The glove compartment isn't very convinient for a quick glance though.

Does anyone have a link to a site with a bunch of different types of pods?
