I saw those pods over at Race and Street, and am thinking that's where I'll order them from. Just out of curiosity, could you give me a parts list of what you ordered exactly from glowshift? Specifically, I know you mentioned using one of their sandwich adapters for your oil pressure sender, but would like to know which you wound up using. I'm using the 3614 filter, so I shouldn't run into any clearance issues.
Thanks for your help. |
I was referring to the gauges in the pod, but if you plan on matching it all, thats different
I just picked up some green bulbs to match the stock gauges, and my overhead map lights and console lights are orange, as well as the rear cargo light. My reverse lights and tag light are super whites.
The oil filter sandwhich adapter I ordered was the 3/4 UNF 16. It comes with two plugs, and one open hole. Im not sure how the N/A motor is set up, but where the filter screws in theres an oil cooler on the turbo, with two oil cooler lines. Myself and another guy I already explained this to, ended up turning the sandwhich adapter so that an extension of about 2 or 2.5 inches can be attached, and run between the two oil cooler lines, and then attach your oil sending unit there. Wrap either the cooler lines or the extension in some thick cushion foam, to keep the line and the extension from rubbing / breaking.
You will see what I mean when you crawl under there. I couldnt mount the sending unit straight up, because it would hit the axle, and couldnt mount it straight down because of clearance issues.
