custom gauge pod idea
I want to do a custom gauge pod and was thinking about utilizing the ashtray area since Im a non smoker anyway. I thought about using this idea posted a while back.

Is there anything out there that anyone has seen that resembles this configuration?

Re: custom gauge pod idea
You can source a replacement sheet of textured ABS (?) to replace the ash tray portion of the shift plate. Then mount the gauges using these or similar:

I did something similar in my Acura. Since I don't smoke I sacrificed the lighter location for a gauge:
Only thing is, now I need to add a charging port for my phone.
If you want something a little different you can source the gauge angle rings from a marine supply place:
