Prosport Halo Gauges!
#26
Good question. The directions are all in Japanese!
I do know that you have to cut a large hole out in the center piece (kind of like with the lotek). The bottom side of the pod is fully molded though (not just a shell) so there is a nice lip for double sided tape which is included. There are also 4 holes on the underside and 4 screws. I'll take more pics and try to get a better idea of how it's mounted when I get home tonight. Stay tuned!

Here are some pics of the new pod. It's made by the company RSW in Japan. You can see there website here: http://www.rsw.ne.jp/. I'll post some more info on it soon.

Question for ya. What happens if you disconnect the touch pad? Does the gauge retain it's color settings and whatnot?
Edit: Asking because I have Amazon gift cards and Prosport carries these gauges there, but I dont plan on using the touch pad except to set the color to amber and remove if possible

I have a feeling it will work properly since it probably just shorts out the pins when you press a button, so by not having the connector in place it would just be as if you never pressed any buttons. I ordered my gauges anyway, figure worst comes to worst I can just cram them in the dash after I set them up.

No, the sites kind of messed up as well as being all in Japanese. email Kenichi Tanaka at info @ rsw.ne.jp. They accept paypal. He said he'd be willing to discount the price a bit if 5 or more people want to buy. Pods are built to order, and they can only make about 5 per month.

I'm curious if the evo gauges are compatible with the wiring harness for the Premium Peak/warning gauges as well as the senders. Having a digital/analog gauge package would be pretty nice. Rewiring wouldn't be impossible but I'm getting more and more lazy these days!
