this may seem like a stupid question but i lived on the eastcoast for 4 years and am not up-to-date on laws.
Is the single subiegal gauge pod considered illegal???

subiegal is just the distributor of a sinlge gauge pod... it fits in the bottom left corner of the windshield. as seen here in the 'for sale' section:

I think it looks fairly clean.... i was just wondering if it's considered an "obstruction" kinda like something dangling off the rearview mirror. I didn't know if i could get a ticket for something like that or not. anyone sure on this issue before i go making my wallet lighter!????
thanks, eric

Dear god...worst webpage EVAR!!! I guess it goes perfectly with her complete lack of personality over on NASIOC.
You never know until you try...and you're not going to get pulled over for just the gauge pod. So if a cop has you pulled over, and is actually that nit-picky, you're F'd already because he's going to find your illegal exhaust/intake, etc

If they spot it and i drive 'normally' they probably can't do anything. But if im like the typical Mustang GT driver with a 120mm temp gauge on the dash who burns out on a green light (man i hate those idiots) then i'd surely get pulled over because the cop would be waiting for me to screw up

why are you worrying about a gauge pod? I mean serious, a cop wouldn't even know it was aftermarket from outside. Maybe if you had no cats and your exhaust was extremely loud but a gauge pod of that size in that location isn't atracting any attention to your car. Give me a break...

I have that pod....no obstruction. You get used to it and don't even notice it. Plus, you cant see it from outside the car, and I dont think a cop will be looking for that.
You'll be ok with it.

$67 for that. And I thought the HKS "meter cups" for $40 we're disgustingly over priced.
jason
p.s. MSRP for the cups is $28... better, but still a rip.
