02-26-08: These are too cool! Roush has unveiled a new set of gauge pods that fit Mustang and F-150 which allow an integrated look and don’t get in the way of visibility. Instead of some A-Pillar or dash pod, these little babies mount in the center stack vents, giving a factory look and a much safer installation.
The new Roush Vent Gauge Pod is cleverly designed to integrate in the round vents of any 2005-2008 Ford Mustang (including the Shelby GT500) or 2004-2008 Ford F-150 truck. Installation is simple - just remove the HVAC air louvers by gently pulling outwards to remove. The Roush Vent Gauge Pod then replaces these louvers with no cutting, drilling, or trimming required. Installation time is just minutes. How much more could you ask for such a cool mod?
Well we ask, what about air flow? The pods have through flow vanes that allow air to be delivered around the gauge. Roush says that there is no significant loss of air flow. What about price? These things are downright reasonable too. The Roush Vent Pod Gauge (part number 403840) carries a suggested retail price of $29.99 and will fit any standard 2-1/16 inch gauge (not included). The unit is low profile and designed to match the interior of the vehicle.
“This is such a simple idea and gives a clean and professional looking installation, and I am really proud to say that the ROUSH Vent Pod Gauge was dreamed up and created by one of our engineers during his
free time,” said Jack Roush. “I think this is a perfect example of how our employees are thinking about innovative ways to continue improving the driving experience virtually 24 hours a day.”
