tom_kauf Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Hi discojon and everyone, Tom here from Liberty.asn forum in Australia. I sell discojon's 3D Printed Dash stoppers over here. This isn't really anything 3D Printed (except the prototype maybe), but in case anyone is interested, a member over here is making these SI-Drive Caps. I posted a quick thread here on your forum. As I mention in the thread below, this isn't the final design, but will be close to this: www.legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/si-drive-cover-cad-designed-cncd-aluminum-244081.html http://forum.liberty.asn.au/download/file.php?id=16708 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streetlegal Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 a sunshade/hood like these for this vent gauge that's kinda like that can shield it...make sense? oohhhh that thing. yea that makes sense. I'm not sure how it would hold in place though. I'm gone all next week but I'll see what I can come up with. Can someone make a small sunshade for the 4th gen navigations?? I feel like this would be the same issue as the hood above in regards to holding it in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freaksavior Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Mine also doesn't sit in the same location as block8head's pods. His are off to the right of the pod built up. Mine sit like this for now. Might change the angle of them some more once I have the actual pod finalized. Need to add some channels in to make sure the air gets directed properly and also to separate the air channels from the wire channels that I will be incorporating. http://s855.photobucket.com/user/gearhead_18/media/Vent%20pod/Pods3_zpso1yggi5v.jpg.html Did you have any chance to get the gauge pod finalized, any update on this?

Streetlegal Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Did you have any chance to get the gauge pod finalized, any update on this? I have not. We have our yearly conference for work next week so things have been crazy getting ready for it. Haven't really had enough free time to work on it. I have the pods and everything modeled I'm just working on blending the pod onto the vent. I'm picky so it needs to be right was thinking I could just do a thin piece of 3m foam adhesive or something...or maybe tabs that shot straight back between the vent and dash? Is there enough of a gap for something to go through? the 3m could possibly work. If that were the case the hood would be pretty simple to make.

Plus I think you're right that there is no room in between those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have a bad ass gauge pod, rather than a pretty cool one. Quality takes time, so I appreciate the eye for detail, I'm in no rush anyway, I just figured i'd ask.

Plus I think you're right that there is no room in between those. Ok sounds good. Well I will be gone for a week so I won't be able to work on it. I'll see what I can come up with when I get back. Shouldn't be very hard to do at all. I'd rather have a bad ass gauge pod, rather than a pretty cool one. Quality takes time, so I appreciate the eye for detail, I'm in no rush anyway, I just figured i'd ask. Well you asking got me wanting to work on it so I stayed late at work to get a little farther. I set the gauges back a little farther and changed up the angles of them. I also was able to integrate the vent path into the pedestal for the gauges. Now I just need to make a hole somewhere to route the wires and add the directional fins for the vent. Would that be something you guys would want? Or would you rather have it lacking the fins? Of course the best part...some pics http://i855.photobucket.com/albums/ab114/gearhead_18/Vent%20pod/rev2a_zps0esow2zk.jpg http://i855.photobucket.com/albums/ab114/gearhead_18/Vent%20pod/rev2b_zpsvdc1qda4.jpg http://i855.photobucket.com/albums/ab114/gearhead_18/Vent%20pod/rev2c_zpsiwnvm3np.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baconbits Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Needs fins, I think. Raise the gauges up a little bit so you have a way to make a "tunnel" for the wires through the trunk holding them up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theflystyle Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I feel like this would be the same issue as the hood above in regards to holding it in place. 3M tape would be fine. I don't think people would need tabs or something like that to clip it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baconbits Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 What kind of fins are we talking? Just a horizontal fin or two to guide the air like the stock vent, if possible. If it's open like that, to me at least, it just screams "Look at all these wires I'm running in my hvac duct!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
