Which company was selling these gvr4 specific ? Can't find them.
 

Last time I checked (which I admit was a few years back) it was no one, but IIRC some people were able to persuade a 2G triple gauge pod to fit. You might just go measure all the dimensions of your pillar and have someone who sells the pods find one that's pretty close, and a heat gun should take care of the rest.

Hmm, I kinda remember someone saying that an Accord triple pillar fit, but maybe not. The reason the Galant triple pods were made of unobtanium was due to the electric seatbelts. If you ditch those for the '89 manual belt setup, the full pillar is able to be used. Otherwise the belt will smack into the top.

Only ones I know of where made by Paulo I believe. The ones off a dsm will have the wrong gauge angle.

I believe I got mine from Lokar. I'd rate it an 8 for color match, a 6 for fit, and a 10 for build quality. It obviously doesn't bug me enough to fix it though, haha.

Edit: It was Lotek. Thank you Scott!

I think Dewmann got the right one. It wasn't called that when I bought mine years ago, but I think they were bought out or something. /ubbthreads/images//graemlins/dunno.gif In any case, in that picture you can clearly see how with stock seatbelts a 3 gauge pod isn't an option. I mean you could probably physically cram 3 pods in there but you'd hardly see the back two gauges. I think someone on the board makes a gauge pod (single or double, I can't remember) that replaces the driver side tweeter grill. You could use that to supplement your double pillar pod, or there are steering column mounting options, as well as the popular DIN mount. Any reason why you want a triple?

^ what do you want different? the already offer a 2 gauge pod for our cars?
couple up from the bottom
i reccommend ordering it in black, as the grey is a bit too light...
