Pillar Gauge Pods
Pillar Gauge Pods
Why does no one make a full pillar pod for 93-96 F-cars?? It's either the dinky little 3M tape on unit or nothing. 97+ gets them. I just think it would be nice to have a full pillar dual or triple pod for the hardtop guys that replaces the stock piece. Anyone else have any info or thoughts???
Up close and personal.....
Under construction....
Holes cut in back for instrument leads
Another installed photo - old... still had the radio and stock steering wheel
I picked up the AuotMeter 2-gauge pod. Used a 2-part epoxy to bond it to the stock A-pillar. Filled the side edges and smoothed them into the stock pillar with Bondo filler. Just "filled" the openings on the "end" of the pod, didn't try and taper them into the stock pillar... I've seen that and I think it looks better with the "edge" visible, but filled. Painted the whole thing with "graphite" vinyl/plastic paint from The Eastwood Company.... about a 95% match to the stock 94 "graphite" interior. Also used the paint on the "radio delete' plate.

someone did offer them (don't remember who it was) I had one but it was for cars with t-tops and I don't have t-tops and I didn't like the way that it looked because of that I'll see if I can find it again
here it is www.gaugepods.com/pontiac.html
