--- (Continued from first part of this post; last part of page 4) ---

I was very excited to stumble upon this unit on Autozone.com during my search for a vacuum gauge. It's perfect for an "eco"-themed build, I believe.

I picked up this dual pod on CL (with the boost guage) for a great deal. The pod is made for my model car, so I was very fortunate. I suppose the ricer-movement also helped my chances. Anyway, plans are to mount the vacuum gauge on top and mod-up a clean way to mount the MPGuino off of the bottom hole.

**Boost gauge pictured above is for sale. PM me your offer! **

Here's the homemade MPGuino that I sourced from a user of the EcoModder forums for a great deal! I'll likely fab up another housing, as things aren't really (aesthetically) as "clean" as I'd like them to be as-is. Going to try and use some of the 3M amber tape for the screen as well. My goal is for all interior lighting/switches/radio to glow amber.
