Don't they have one that said something along the lines of "objects in mirror appear to be slower than you" That would be funny too. Where do you get these?

I want one that says:

OBJECTS IN MIRROR ARE LOSERS

They are the nicest looking pods i have ever seen, and hawg. I personally think the side view of your setup looks fine. Although seeing it in person might be a different story, it looks great for a custom job.

On the shift light, is it pretty much as the raptor web site tells you how to install it? or are there tips still out there?

Is it considered cheesy/rice to have a gauge pod but no blower/spray?

I really want a shift light and those nexus gauges in that sos pod would look good. But part of me thinks I should have some type of blower/spray to have a pod [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]

i usually think that way well at least on riced out cars, but i dont know, that looks kinda cool. And i would prefer to be able to see an accurate oil pressure and water temp instead of the dummy gauges used in cars today. They will only show fluctuation when the reading starts getting pretty bad.

if you like gauge pods, its your car, go ahead and use them. Doesnt matter what other people think. and its a great way to mount gauges.

oh its all good, yeah i dont like tint. Not ripping on you, but i wouldnt tint my windows. just saying i think everyone has their own tastes and thats what its all about

although one of the japanese companies (apexi i think) make a line of gauges that actually attach to the windshield glass that i always thought looked really neat. They sell them in the states with proper units as well. I always thought gauge pod mounts looked bulky, but these dont.

Obviously spoken by someone that doesn't live in Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Lousiana, Florida, Oklahoma, etc. Without window tint, I don't care if you have ice chips flying at you out of your center vents when the A/C is on, you WILL get a sunburn through the glass in the summer.

[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/lol.gif[/img] so true and when your car is black on black like mine its insta-sweat temp as soon as you get in the car. I even close off the 4th vent on the passengerside!
