they dont make a 3 gauge. you have to buy TWO 2 gauge pods and cut the one pod out of one of them and overlap to make a 3 gauge. someone will post pics. not that hard. but you do have to get two pillar pods to make a 3 gauge. noone makes a 3

I made this out of a double and a single Autometer guage pod that I ordered from Geno's garage. The single pod is on top. You just have to cut the mating ends off of each pod, then either fiberglass the two pieces together or melt them together with a soldering iron like I did. Then blend with Bondo and paint. Make sure you leave enough space to insert the guage in the hole. Mine was VERY close.

I used a Sunpro "generic" 3 gauge pillar pod from JCWhipme. Took some time to shape/form (heatgun/kitchen shears)... I thought it turned out pretty nice.

My original 3 guage pod install w/ picture goodness
