To everybody, as of now this is in the building process (almost finish though, just a few touches here and there) as my brother stated this item will be all made by us and by hand, please for now just vote for your favorite one, the poll will be up for about a week or so in the mean time we finish fabrication, after that we'll see where we go, again we can use all the feedback u can give us, thx.

How do you mount those to the liftback's driver side glovebox cover?

I'm not really looking for a gauge pod, but something I can mount there to shade an entire GPS unit. The TRD one you've picture looks great though and is what I'd get if I were to mount gauges.

i think it would be cool to make a guage set up that goes in front of the spedo

just so you all know it mounts to the door but you still use the storage compartment, thats one of the good things abount our designs.

TinyGiant
07-31-2009, 10:54 AM
i wonder if its possible to color match and texture match them.. that would be sweet

TRD. No doubt.

how does it mount to the compartment door?

Tamago
07-31-2009, 12:46 PM
you may want pictures of the ACTUAL finished product, since these pieces look really rough.


also, how are you going about making these? with a mold? vacuum bagging? autoclave for curing?

ahh yes.

i'm assuming the TRD replica is not their actual product though, considering it's the only one that doesn't look unfinished. ;)

For the love of all that is holy, build that racer pod.

Ok so, again this pods are in the final fabrication stages after we finish them 100% we'll take pics of them already mounted and primed ready for color, we know they're still rough around the edges so please check the models vote and again leave any input you might have (thanks a lot to all of u that have reply and give your input) also for the mounting part we want to still be able to use the compartment (wich will be 100% supported) so we have a few ideas of what we'll use but that we'll do after we find out wich will be the best option

ChinoCharles
07-31-2009, 08:28 PM
Keep in mind you'll have to have a vendor account. It is only fair to our other vendors.

what size it the tach openning in the trd one? i have a tach i'm going to eventually get.

schleppy
07-31-2009, 09:43 PM
I have another option I think you guys should offer. I'll fill you in when I swing by!

cruz-gsr
07-31-2009, 10:17 PM
the plan is to become a verdor, sizes are 3 3/4 for the tach and 2 2/16 for the other gauges

ok a little FYI, for those of you who have GPS (or any other equipment) mounted on to the top compartment, we can make a custom holder for it, just pm'd us and we'll see what we can do for you, as of right now though fabrication of the pods are 95% finish, we'll keep you all post on the progress as we go, please keep all the inputs coming.

ChinoCharles
08-02-2009, 08:06 PM
^^^ I would buy that no question.

08-02-2009, 08:51 PM
these are looking great. can you answer how they're going to be mounted as i'm also an avid user of the yaris and all of its secret compartments. I'd love to be able to use the gauges as well as my glove compartment =)

btw great job so far keep up the great work. unique mods like this are sweeeet.

advocate, you will be able to still used your glove compartment the only thing is depending how you run the wires for the gauges you might loose a little space of it however, that's one of the very few steps that me and my brother need to finish, we are working to see which way the wires take as little space as possible to run, also as before, we have a few options already on how to mount the pod holders is just a little adjustment here and there to really nail it down, we have schedule finish most (if not all) of them by the time the poll is done ( that's 08-09-09), so as always, keep the all the inputs coming!

Just make the fit PERFECT. Delay release until its PEEERFECT. If there is one thing I know about this crew it is that they will burn your house down for offering a lackluster product. YW people are a picky bunch.

we will make sure is 100% perfect fit before sale, thats why first we are getting feedback from all of you. keep it comming

I would hope that they would take the baby out of the house, and THEN
burn it down. :tongue:

j/k ....I don't advocate violence, but I do see your point.

nothing wrong with wanting your money to go to a product that actually looks good, since it's a cosmetic piece to begin with ;)
