Gauge Pod loose

[Blk04MM]

I've drilled out and added the 3rd gauge to my pod but now the front of it hangs down. Any of you other with 3 gauges have that issue or do I need some better clips to hold the pod in place??

i would try better clips, i think these gauge pods a prone to breaking the clips when removed? are any clips snapped off?

Check both clips as they have a tendency to break or come loose. Also make sure the pod is in the space correctly. There is a lip on the pod and a lip on the dash that need to mesh.

Hose broke. Another member here sent me clips. It worked fine till the new gauge got in

Clip are there. Maybe they aren't big enough. It is in the space I checked both sides. As far as the top lip it's kind of hard to see if the top lip mesh

I've had the gauge pod in and out of The Blackbird a number of times, to add the 3rd gauge and to swap them for upgraded ones. It still fits perfectly.

I'm thinking either something is broken on yours, or it isn't re-installed correctly.

After taking a closer look it seems as if the clips are too small or aren't spread open wide enough. I'll try to alter them a bit.

You could buy new clips

It is not installed correctly. You have to push it in at the top. You have to push it in just as hard as you had to pull it out. You also need to install at an angle (front towards the roof and rotate down as you push it in.

Does the top part have to push hard into a slot? Can someone please show me where the top actually goes so I can do it right

I thought the clips were discontinued? When I had to replace my bulbs for the first time, my gauge pod fits correctly but is loose to the touch. I thought the clips were discontinued?

I went to my local ford and ordered two sets. They come out of Detroit

There is a lip under the dash that the top of the god goes into.
