Interior/Exterior Show off your gauges here! Pics here!
See...the A-pillar cover doesn't come off during deployment...you could mount pillar gauges
Glad you're ok:smile:

This comes from another thread about totaling a mini into a mountain (now in the mini talk forum i believe, i hope its ok to use this pic)
The roof liner airbags deployed, but notice that the A pillar in fact did NOT launch as many had earlier believed. The idea that just the top opens a bit is true. Just figured i would share. Seems like a pillar gauge pods are plausible

Keep in mind that the design of the Airbag system was changed for the 05's! They had to revise it to fit the fold down sunshade and the handle on the passenger side. I dont know if this effects this, but it might. Just thought i would let yall no.

Red mil switches (not in any particular order, some are dual):
1-Whelen horn/PA
2-PLX AF gauge
3-Venom primary arm
4-N20 purge arm
5-WAI pump arm
6-remote N2O bottle solenoid
7-N20 purge button (right side of column out of site)
Near shifter boot:
8-XP-3 deer avoidance arm
9-PIAA 1100X
On top of the dash is a Gtech Pro performance meter/sequential shift light. On the steering column are Venom AF, WAI flow indicators and N2O secondary arm. The brackets for the two pods are fabricated from aluminum stock attached to Autometer cups and mounted to back of OEM gauges using same holes:smile:
BTW...if anyone has the newer silver/orange Gtech Pro and would like to exchange for the black/blue, let me know

Good Lord, you KNOW you're gettin' old when NOTHING down there (except for NOS) makes any sense at all. . .
Sounds like a spare parts list for R2D2 or something. . .

Yeah, when it senses a deer, an arm comes out of the dash and yanks your steering wheel for you. . .
Just hope there's no oncoming traffic!!

So I guess the question is this:
Can you make more of those gauge pods for those of us with Navi. Maybe make them cheap and turn a small profit
. If maybe not alot at least one for me

Thanks Bill. Nice to know that I'm not the only one.Michael
Simple layout - I have the Autometer Boost Gauge & my Valentine V1 remote display in the e-pod setup. I put the V1 remote there to keep the V1 stealthy, and I think it's easier to glance at the remote display here than looking at the V1 up by the mirror.

I'll give a description of what I had to go thru for this install - I need to few days to write it down... just busy today & no time.. I like to be fairly precise & tend to re-read & edit stuff like this to make it understandable... Thanks for the thumbs up

Why?
I too, share the empty brain reserve, when looking for answers to this supposed list of automotive parts.
MSFITOY's MINI interior looks like the bridge of the Starship Enterprise.



What are the red switches for?


I bet nobody at HIN's got another one of these NASA devices! Let's see how their mega buck 3 million watts of sub deal with a 180lb piece of flyn meat at a 100 miles an hour
