    well I finally got my Gauge Pod installed into my car on Monday except for the ***** of a time getting screws into it and goofing one of the holes it came out decent in the end...Was planning on fixing the hole and re-drilling it this weekend.... so lets move on to today .. notice the pod isn't sitting right ... noticed it was a little off yesterday but really didn't pay too much mind to it ..... so as a I look I see a big crack in it ... now i'm mad as you can imagine but as I look a little more I notice the pod is warped all the way down the windshield side .... SO I contacted ZZP about this and hope something happens and I don't have to eat the $40 I payed for the pod esp when it was something due to an obvious material defect... after all what use is a gauge pod if it warps and deforms from direct sun. Anyway here is the carnage.







    btw I know its dirty, my hands weren't 100% clean when I removed it I was a little pissed.

    My concern is if I get another one from ZZP will it do the same thing .... and I think that is a valid concern
