Classic Dash Pod
Hi all,
after making the dash pod for my classic impreza I have been contacted by dannyboygti to see if i could make another one of these dash pods, Ive agreed to make it and dont mind making them for anyone else on here that may want one, Im goin to lay this thread out like a project thread taking pictures along the way while I make the dash pod, ive been off work sick the past few days so havent made a start yet but atleast the part have arrived and will get started ASAP
Here's a pic of the pods and the surround i will be fitting them in and also a pic of my original dash pod

got the surround opened up to accept the pods today and lay a base down ready for fibre glassing 
its hard to tell in the pic's but each pod is on a slight tilt towards the driver

ye the pods will stay there as they will hold the shape and give alot better fitment and stregth for the gauges, they will have the back of then cut down tho so they dont protrude to far into the dash
