The glue holding the plastic to the metal does not hold up to the heat from the sun. Within 2 weeks of being on the dash, the glue became detached. Got a replacement... Same exact thing.

This goes in the middle of your – on your second gen Dodge I haven't put any gauges up there but it seems like it should work pretty well I've set it on the dash and looked at it. I don't know how it's going to block the defroster vent it doesn't go over the top of it but it goes right beside him. It would take removing the dash to be able to install this properly because you need to run the gauge wires up to it unless you want to drill a hole in your dash which I don't recommend

used a dremel tool to cut this to contours of the dashboard on our minivan. drilled two holes in the top to screw it down to the dash. this has a threaded tab for IF you are installing it in a specific vehicle, but it can be made to be universal if you carve on it. For $45 or so, you don't want to mess up...SunPro gauges fit in it... barely... the lamps will press up against the top of the housing. Gauge fit is snug enough that the gauge brackets were not needed.I haven't found another pod like this. It was the right item to get - but if someone had the same thing for less, I'd have been all over it. It can't have cost more than $3 to produce.M

A `very expensive' piece of plastic that I doubt I will be able to use!Did quite the search for a meter pod that I can install in my vehicle so I can monitor exact conditions, such as voltage, temperature and oil pressure, and with meters, as opposed to the `idiot lights'.The picture of this product is very deceiving! And the description is inaccurate as well. After receiving this, the very first thing I had noticed was that the holes for the meters were angled way to the left.Looking at the picture, it appears that the meter holes face directly forward, but not true. My plans were to install this center on my dash in front of the steering wheel. However with the holes for the meters angled way to the left, that's not going to work very well...Calling the manufacture, I was told that this was `only' made for Dodge Ram trucks, 1998-2002 Dodge Ram (except '02 1500), and for mounting center on the dash, in-between the driver and passenger side.In other words, directly centered in the `middle' of the dash, and to the right of the driver. Thus the reason for the meter holes to be angled to the left.Within the item description it says, "Mounts to OEM pillar and fits 1998-2002 Dodge Ram except 2002 1500 series vehicles"Well they did get part of it right, but it can clearly be seen that this doesn't mount to a pillar.Further in the description, "It mounts on the front of the dashboard and offers a universal fit." This contradicts the previous description of it.It in fact appears to be somewhat `universal' from the picture of it. But again, not true!The manufacture stating that amazon.com isn't an authorized distributor, and they are not responsible for that deceiving picture, or the content in the description.The dash in my vehicle isn't straight from one side to the other, to where I could mount this in the middle of the dash and be able to see the meters angled towards me.The manufacture telling me that they don't make anything that would suit my application, or any similar pod that doesn't have the meter holes angled as they are. They do have quite the selection of meter pods for countless specific vehicles, but never thought of offering just a plain, universal meter pod.And the real shame is that through hours of Internet searching, this manufacture seems to be the only manufacture making these types of meter pods.In looking at this, I'm not seeing any way to modify it, and at nearly $50.00 for this `piece of plastic', don't think I would even attempt it, if I even seen a possibility.Will still take this out to my vehicle and see if there is `somewhere' I can mount it, and still make use of it, given the fact that there are no others out there that I've been able to find, that aren't made by this same manufacture.If not able to come up with a solution, for sure will be sending it back!Can probably take that nearly $50.00, and come up with something else I can mount meters in, and probably for half the cost, such as a simple plastic project box.Really disappointed!

I purchased this dash pod to use in my 2003 Jetta TDI to hold the additional gauges from my Grease Car conversion. To use it in my Jetta, it required a few very minor modifications, but works and looks great.
