Help on gauge pod needed

[Jack B]

Does anyone besides Viper Elite have the Piller Gauge Pod?

Jack , why not do what I did..Pull your battery gauge and drop your boost gauge in it's place

The Pillar Pods don't have a nice factory fit.

Cheers

jeff is right...i have one of those pods....it's not the greatest fitting piece....Len

The other alternative is to use a single pod mounted on the steering column. There is an aftermarket one made for the Dodge truck that shares the same column that fits well.

Jack here's a pic of my Gauge ...Looks like a Factory installation.

Jack - have you looked at Autometer part #15012?

Picture in the link does not show Dodge part, but it fits and looks great, where none of the A-Pillar solutions do (IMHO!).

BobD (?) posted pictures in another a few weeks ago.

I just bought the pod from elite also...I cannot get this thing to fit at all. Sure its not for a ford focus??

I got my A-Pillar pod to fit good but I had to really heat it up with a hairdryer and mold the top of it to the pillar. Otherwise you will have a large gap at the top. I am happy with the A-pillar pod since I needed two gauges, a fuel and boost.

txlen,

Have a look at:

The pictures may (or may not) show! If not, shoot BobD and e-mail and I know he'll send you copies.

We use the column pod, although it takes a bit of manipulation to make it work correctly. Which pillar pod works the best that can be shaped to fit? I purchased a VW pod a while ago and the contour was pretty close at the top, although the bottom was a bit misshapen.

I wasn't impressed w/ the ELITE gauge pod. It looks like a mustang pod w/ a viper logo on it.

speaking of which, a mustang gauge pod fits nicely. cheap, too.

Yea for $70.00...I expected it to fit at least somewhat!

Thanks, JD! What year Mustang works best?
