Default I now have access to a CNC machine.

If willsonTT would be willing to give me some specs from his gauge pod I could run some off. I would need pretty close measurements so I could CAD them up. I'm thinking about making one that can house an ApexI unit as well.

How much do you think you could make them for?

Default I guess Wilson can better answer this - but I think he does these by request

and never really intended to market them - they are far too costly for him to produce by hand. I think if he is willing to team up with someone - everyone would be a winner. I'd definitely buy one.

Default I don't have to pay for time only the material.

So whatever material costs plus the shipping. I know that we could sell them for alot, but that's not needed. These won't be handmade like willson's. I could probably make them myself, will just take more time getting specs and stuff designed on CAD. I don't know if I want my Boost down there. Still probably going to put that on the A pillar. I want to put my A/F and EGT in the center console area, along with the apexi.

Default Go for it.. i will order one immediately...

Or if you choose to do it slightly different from Wilson's then you can probably design one yourself.

Default Guess I will have to start getting some measurements then.

Also need to figure out how willson's are attached. Can't find the post about his process write-up.

Default Aw... C'mon man.. lol... Someone has to offer it up.

But the new one should incorporate the stock cigarette lighter. And the TT should be clear plastic which lights up. Or at least enameled. I have few other ideas for it also... hmmm... custom could get interesting.
