I have changed the design of the back side on the pod to accommodate more variety of 52mm gauges (I didn't realize earlier that some gages still have a physical bulb socket that requires much more available depth.) Updated design actually looks better anyway.
Leading evidence: 'Replace design of the back side' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion).

Suggestion
I would love to a relocation of the climate control so you can run a double din with a center console delete

Suggestion
You should be able to run a USB cable from a head unit under the delete panel and snake it back to the mount location, but I don�t see any issue with cutting a hole in the console delete.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

This may be a treat for those with gt3s, those who deleted center console and need a spot for custom gauge, or those who want to delete console but the need of custom gauge was holding them back.
Design inspiration was taken from Chrono design in modern 911s but still being able to fit into small trim in front of the shifter. Any gauge with standard diameter of 52mm will fit (like AEM).
Any suggestions, thoughts, useful alteration you guys would like to see?

This is cool! I like this. Any possibility of doing a variation of this to put on the top of the dash or even the A pillar for those of us that want a chronograph clock but keep the centre stack?
That's a good location for an add on module. Maybe an oil temp gauge...
I've done the console delete, and long term I would like an oil temp gauge. If you are ready to sell, let me know, maybe I'll buy one anyway for the day when I get around to making an oil temp gauge.
You could put a scantily clad picture of your significant other in there. Maybe even a Tamagachi. Turn it into a cup for storing pistachios? The possibilities are endless.
Finally an update, its been a busy first half of the year and this being a hobby takes lowest priority.

I will be adding this to ebay and Etsy in coming days.

Thanks all, for the interest and suggestions! I'm working on few more items in the future, also shifting some of my attention to G-body 911, since that my new project on hand.
@Coopduc
yes I only had few of those, and it sold out that morning. I have more on order, coming in 2 weeks.
This is printed using multi jet fusion technology.
There should be, the rear half has an airbag control module but I think there should be enough empty space forward for a little cubby. The airbag module would make me nervous about putting a drink holder there though.
yeah it would be neat to have a phone mount, not necessarily such that the phone is sitting up, but even just a pocket-ish thing I could drop it into would be pretty neat.
Here's how much room is available on the horizontal, had this pic laying around. I'm actually thinking there's not enough room, or at best it would be tilted downward but the phone would be sticking out decently far, phones are really big these days.
If you have multiple cars that use it, it's better to buy the liter size.
Here are a couple of pics of my test fit.
This is with the new style VDO:
This is a VDO old style;
What might be an issue for some is that I don't see any way to wire it up without trimming some of the console area beneath the gauge (shown as the hatched area).
I'll get some better pics when I have it out of the garage.
You should be able to run a USB cable from a head unit under the delete panel and snake it back to the mount location, but I don�t see any issue with cutting a hole in the console delete. The 996.1 GT3 ClubSport had a kill switch there for the whole car.
I bought an 'under dash' single din pocket and was going to use the oem climate surround to do exactly this.
I was going to fit the PCCM+, but then heard mixed reviews on it and didn't proceed.
But it would have sat just under the dash still leaving the console delete feel to the car and the extra leg room.
That guage looks great mate. really great.
@kropka
I forgot to say thanks for the replacement shifter horseshoe trim. It still wasn't perfect but fit better. I ended up having to drill out the holes in the boot a little. Do you want me to ship the grey one back to you?
