A-Pillar

**Z28boy2000** · 06-10-2009, 10:28 AM

ive been searching for an A-Pillar that will hold 3 gauges....but the only A-Pillars that i can seem to find are for T-Top T/A's and Z's. Does anyone know where i can get the triple pillar pod for a hard top

I don't think they make one. All you have to do is buy a t-top one and cut the lip off of the top to fit the hardtop.

Yeah that's what I was thinking

How hard is it to instal the gauges into the car...wiring ect.

It's wasn't bad (did mine last summer). Since I'm a perfectionist, I spent a lot of time making the wiring neat, eventhough it is hidden...total time was about a day. I then took it all apart over the winter to install digital gauges.

I have a Wideband A/F, Fuel Pressure, and Tach/Shiftlight.

yeah I'm goin with ls1camino on this one I was reading a Camaro Performance magazine last night and there was a 98 SS hradtop or maybe a 96 either way the picture he had a Triple Gauge Cluster on the pillar, he listed that he got it from autometer but when you look on there site they only sell triple gauge clusters for camaros 82-92 and ttops all the way through 02 so i'm guessing he trimmed it as well.

$150 used from a member on here. Had the Carbon Fiber analog gauges...sold them for $150 to a friend (kept the pillar pod). I think I paid $2.500 or so for the digital gauges and sending units. I still need to buy a Wideband O2 Sensor

when i put mine up i took the cars pillar off lined up the new one over the old one and marked where the guages would go than cut large holes in the oem pillar, and glued the pod pillar to the oem pillar using 2 part epoxy cause i wanted a clean look instead of using screws or velcro ... when dried i put the gauges in ran the wires down the back of the oem side and repoped it on .. looks almost factory

one note .. im assuming your looking for the complete sleeve .. when installing make sure that the cut out for the window vent is lined up if not widden the pods hole ..

I've always wondered how bad the color difference is on these pod pillars I seem to see a few pics and they look mix matched colors any with them installed care to take a few photos...
