I am trying to figure out if I want a dual or tripod. Dual seems like there needs to be another yet the tripod one looks like theres too many People have also talked about angle and seating arrangement. Crikey I had a big enough battle going on in my mind So now it brings me to the million dollar question. What gauge pods are best for someone who is 6ft 2 has seat on lowest setting and 3/4 quaters the way back and is very fussy when it comes to quality/asthetics. Any help would be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess its a generic pod and you cant make one that will cater to everyone.I'm happy with it, except what a *beep* of a job getting the mechanical oil and boost fittings (autometer) to fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be one that stands out surely... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to have a go with the FG.. If I stuff it, the panels are $150 from Ford.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
