Doing an audio upgrade and adding a gauge pod for volts, oil press and air fuel ratio. Will post more pictures as the work progresses! Pillars will eventually be either re-wrapped in carbon fiber wrap or painted black.

in to see the gauges
anyone else got pictures of gauges installed in their aveo?
I have been trying to post an updated picture since last night but it's not working at all. Not sure what's going on with that. But if you go onto the aveoforum Facebook page you will be able to see it there.
The gauges are not wired up yet and the pillars need to be painted black still but I did a test fit to see how it's all coming totether and that's the picture I have been trying to upload, so go check out the fb page and you will see it there! Might have to go back a bit in the posts tho :)
this forum has a facebook page?

So no one makes an a-pillar pod. Hmmmm, time for even more customization.
what size were you factory speakers? Mine are 4 inch in the first gen and i have some 6.5's and i want to use them. How did you get your to fit without them hitting the window? any info is great! keeping me from buy brand new speakers when i have a perfectly good pair.
haha almost everything is custom for these cars.. not much out there that's aftermarket for usQuote:

That way I didn't need any spacers for it and I get to actually see the aftermarket speakers and it sounds better too. ill try to post a pic tomorrow as my audio set up is now complete.
I can hook up vacuum, volt and oil pressure. But how do you hook up air/fuel?
You install an aftermarket O2 sensor into the exhaust.
It's alot to write so I'll just attach a link lol
How to Install an Autometer Air Fuel Ratio Gauge | eHow
I am pretty good with electrical most of the time :) and I am having my buddy help me who is a mechanic. I am going to do a write up on everything once it's all complete!
so if i wanted to install my 6.5's would i just take that 4 inch speaker pod thing out and put spacers in so it wouldnt touch the window? I dont really want to cut anything haha how big of a spacer would i need so the door would go back on?
If anyone needs help installing gauges I can help. I've installed every type of gauge imagineable.
Thanks camopaint707... I might take you up on that for wiring my oil pressure and air/fuel gauges :)
