Lightbulb opinions needed on NEW CF PRODUCT!

This is a fully molded carbon fiber 3 gauge pod. it houses 3 2inch gauges.

installs with your choice of two screws or two zip ties.

instal zipties through holes around part of the hvac unit or you can screw in.

best of all NO modifcation to the radio bezel is neccesary to make this work. that way if you are driveing a leased evo or may want to return the car back to stock you can remove without a trace of it being there!

should this item be mass produced is there any interest?


price tbd...ie what you guys think it should be(don't say $5 bux to get it cheaper )

1) I don't know why anyone in their right mind would LEASE an EVO.

2) Carbon fiber ADDED to an existing component of the car defeats the whole purpose of carbon fiber. Carbon fiber is used to replace an existing component with something lighter and stronger. While the addition can be considered negligible, it still technically adds weight to the car. The end result, in my opinion, is RICE.


I'll put this on my car if you pay ME to do it.
