Belay that! Just realized that I did not open the rear skins for the upper shelf! DOHH!!!, updated models attached!
That's a great idea! I reached out to Rio just now... Let's see what he says.@sck_nogas Have you posted this in the FB groups? That starwagon.info guy may be able to help, but I don't think he's on the forum. I'd honestly love to see this model evolve. One thing I didn't realize is that the metal mounting plate for the 3 gauge pod is very different than the one for the 2 gauge pod. So it's not a direct bolt on. Would be really cool to make a 3 pod that fits to the 2 pod bracket. I've also been wanting to design a new faceplate to house my HKS EVC and Turbo Timer all nice and clean. I should really learn more about 3d modeling...
Well, I've printed a few test models and then had to tweak things and then my printer started dying.any updates on this?
He didn't put the file up for sale because he knew he needed to tweak it since he hadn't actually seen my van. I'm sure once he's done with mine he'll put it up, but I know the Nomadic guys wanted to work with him so maybe he won't. I don't know.Saw that 3d printed one as well, and while I understand him not wanting to sell them due to how long they take. Always strikes me as weird people don't immediately toss files up for sale. I'm more impressed that the first step is done. Personally I'd love to remove the alt/incl gauges and put in horizontal slots for my EVC and Turbo Timer.
Your awesome @sck_nogas I have absolutely no technical know-how or ability to help this effort in any useful way but I am into this and want to applaud all your work here. I say keep it up!Well, I've printed a few test models and then had to tweak things and then my printer started dying.

So, hopefully, can finish this and have a final version available by mid-late March.
I've burned through 5 spools of PETG trying to get this thing "right" and I still don't think it's perfect. Plus, the printer sometimes "hiccups" 26 hours into a 36 hour print and I have to throw the print away!!!!
