I don't find this to be that big of a deal and surprised so many do.

i still dont see how the tach being on the right vrs the left would make it easier to see in your periferial vision unless you look down at the shifter to shift. if you do that learn to feel your car and get a pro 5.0 because well the shifter just finds the next gear.
but also if you say the periferial vision is best to the right lower side then there would be no need for a pillar pod.
im confused i just dont get it. but to each his own, if you really want it on the right go ahead. you could always disasemble your dash and see if the insturment cluster is pieced and swap them out. if there not i would have to say it would be way too hard to bother. or you could also get a monster tach and put it on the dash

I think this is why he would prefer to move it to the right!!
When your driving a manual transmission u shift with your right hand i suppose!! (Unless your in tokyo then it would be your left!!) Anyway your handling the steering wheel with your left in which (on normal human beings) blocks the rpm guage therefore sometimes you need to either move your head towards the left to look at what rpm your at or move your hand out of the way.....(both can be a little dangerous when haulin *** down the road!!) Therefore if the rpm guage is in the right side you can see it alot easier without having to move to look at it!!

only if you do the cool vin desil grab the wheel from the center top. Those who drive professionally all that i know of grab the wheel at 3 and 9 (or somewhere abouts) and then there is no blockage of either guage.
either way to each there own and ill put my time money and effort into another mod but im very curious on this subject
