I have a nice flat black screw with a like a washer on the end of it. The main thing is that it will hold permanently and wont randomly peel off. Also if i ever need to change some things or a gauge breaks or something it is very easy to remove the pod.

In reguard to the GAUGE i agree with the analog call on this one. better, cheaper,
a little less Knight Rider.

Just curious, how could an electrical be better than an analog for guys like us?

Lol, by "us" i was refering to car enthusiasts looking for a bit more power on the road and are not interested in data logging and super fine car tuning and such.

I got an Autometer series Phantom Vac/Boost gauge going in it.



Oh does anyone know what paint to use to paint the pod the color of your interior. I got a tan interior, and I dunno if black would look good or not in there.

The picture is a bad picture of my interior, but you get an idea of what I mean by tan.

Some of the 850's came stock with a tan interior and some black dash parts, it may look good, just try it out.

And I just noticed that you already have a black steering wheel, you cant go wrong with black. For my car, i found it too hard to match colors, so i just removed the entire a pillar and repainted it.
