custom a pillar tweeter and oil pressure gauge pods

[vxfocus]

so i had my tweeters just stuck in the a pillars that i just cut holes for..looked pretty amateur...so now with the new engine in i wanted a digital oil pressure gauge but couldnt find a place to put it so here i go again with the fiberglass and body filler....man i hate bodywork
here are some pics after glass and filler work and sprayed with rocker texture

[44ficus44]

i wanted the gauge down as low as it could go so i wouldnt have to look up to see it...as close to the dash as i could get it....

X2...that tweeter will be right in your ear.

That's what I love about my pillar cluster. People always ask, "why do you have a boost gauge?"

I usually respond with a coy smile. ;)

i have had the tweeters in that location fir about a year and half and never mindedthem being there.i have read that is better to have the tweeters father away from the woofer so separate the frequency.. but the each his own

[UWVX89]

Love these, I'd buy a pair or send you mine to have similar work completed!

What did you use for the housing before fiberglass or bondo?

What did you use for the housing before fiberglass or bondo?

for the tweeters i used 1 1/2 pvc end caps and for the oil gauge i used 2 inch black pipe

Do you plan on making any of these for sale? or modding ours for a price if we send them to you lol, I think the Vx will look badass with guages

2nd question, why an oil press gauge of all gauges?

Heh, ya, sadly, once the light goes off, it's usually too late anyways. ;)

2nd question, why an oil press gauge of all gauges?

new engine installed so i wanted to keep an eye on the oil pressure so a digital gsuge wss the route i went..plus i installed the insta lube system so this way i can watch the pressure drop to zero then crank the engine over

i doubt i will make these for sale.sorry everyone.i just hate body work so bad i would have to charge an arm and a leg to justify all the time put into making these
