Default NNBS 08 Silverado Cubby hole guage options?

the two cubby holes below the vents in the center bezel. Does any one make a gauge pod for that spot?

I want to mound a eboost2 there

Didn't someone use to make them on here, then basically stopped making them and the door pods?

do you remember what they were called? I remember seeing them at one time.

The SoCal pod is still being made, but I have nothing like that in this truck

He hasnt made them since a long time ago.

I ended up making a custom one out of a piece of sheet steel that I cut and bent. Pretty crude but it worked for me. I don't have any real knowledge of fiberglass work so I didn't go that route.

Maybe get a sound shop or someone to make a setup?

I haven't kept track of his for sale thread for a long time. I should have bought 3-5 of each and sold them myself

I have one but if im correct the eboost gauges are 60mm and the ones made by 2007 chevy only fit the 52mm ones because of the way they are made. They taper out toward the gauge and dont have enough material to hold a bigger gauge. Ill try and take a pic of it later as i pulled the gauge out of it to go a pillar mount.

looks like I'm going to have to cut the cubby hole out and make one out of aluminum plate.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I have one of those gauge pods for the cubby hole under the heat controls that I bought a few years ago from the member here who made them, but on my truck it doesn't fit. For some reason the pod is smaller than the hole (never a good thing LOL)

I am travelling but back home on Friday I can post a pic of the pod and the dimensions and if someone wants to buy it I'll sell to them.

I also have from the same guy the pod that replaces the mirror triangle on the drivers door, likely would never use that either.
