You can also dremmel your dual or triple pod gauge to fit the 60mm gauges. Alot have done that to get all of thier gauges together.

I have the Lotek triple 60 mm. And three Greddy 60 mm gauges w/ peak hold. And no they don't fit in. You gotta get a file and shave off the edges slowly. Shove the gauge in and you'll get a tight fit. Don't worry about looks...because the lipped edge of the gauge will cover up your handy work.

60mm guages in automete a pillar
Hey guys,
Just wondering has anyone fit 60mm greddy guages or any 60mm guages in an autometer dual a-pillar pod? I know I can bore the hole out but im worried about the back of the pod interfering with the guage.
Thanks

I'm pretty sure you can do it with greddy's, they're not very deep. I personally did it with defi's, they fit fine.

You can probably go to carbonwerks.com or carbontrix.com and get on carbon fiber.

DSMSPOON,
I had a friend help me with this, just get the drum sander bit and work slow from the inside out ... stopping to make sure you are not taking off too much meat from the pod. Does it take time - yes, or at least it looked like it as I watched.
There is no other 60mm pod out there for the a-pillar, put the time into it and I promise you'll like they way it turns out.
Good luck!

Or you could look a little more and find them....
http://www.gaugepods.com/g2twin.JPG <---picture
http://gaugepods.com/mitsubishi.html <----purchase site
but like people have been sayin, you can take a regular 2 1/16" pod and dremmel it out to fit a 60mm its not that hard took me 5 min with a dremel. check out my gallery for pics of my Apexi gauge in my dremeled out 2 1/16" pod.
