Custom Dual Pod Gauge Bezel Dash Cluster!!

Im Very excited about this product.

About 2 months ago a small home based company in RI call Ortiz Customs Pods Started to Produce a Dual Gauge pod for the 2010 and up Camaro. (52mm)

I am one of the first ones to get one in hand . I drove down and spoke with the guys and saw there shop. These guys build the by hand using factory equipment.

I ordered the Pod on March 20th and Received the prototype today!

Jannetty Racing will be installing this pod along with Some nice digital EVO Gauges on Tuesday the 21st!. So you guys will have to wait to see it installed.

So far my first impression on the pod is awesome. It looks like they really put the time and effort into this to make sure it looked smooth and flawless!

I can't wait to get it installed and see how it looks.

If anyone contacts them to order one of these, just be aware its 2 guys in a small warehouse pumping out A TON of pillars for all makes and model cars. So expect a 30 day turnaround if you want one at this time.

Im in no way affilitated with them, just a happy customer wanting something different than everyone else!!

1 thing I'm defiantly going to look for with this installed is how much each pod blocks the speedometer and lower part of the Tach. I will post pics as soon as its installed on Tuesday!!













STAY TUNED


5-6-2015 UPDATE

Happy to announce that it is no longer a prototype and it is now finalized and in production!!

Here are the changes that were made:
1-The pods them selves were cut shorter and were raised in the front by half an inch.
2-They sanded the bezel a a bit more smoother than last model.
3-They used a brighter color silver, and put several coats of clear on it.

With the new pods angled up higher, and shorter. This made the gauges on the instrument cluster more viewable.

You can now see all of the Coolant Temp. You can see up to 3/4 Gas. You can see the speedometer from 20mph and up. And you only loose over 7500 RPMs. !!

The end product is Awesome....Here are some photos!!
