pillar gauge pod
I have a company that is willing to manufacture triple gauge pillar pods for our C4's. They would be full pillars that replace the OEM trim piece. Cost would be Approx. $75.00. I am just looking to get an idea of how many of you would be interested in them. They would only be available in three gauge setups.

Re: pillar gauge pod (ludachriss2)
Isn't the price a little off?
I got my dual pod for $24.
Also, they would supporting vendor status to sell here unless a deal is worked out with Troy or Bigtoe.

Re: pillar gauge pod (ld85)
Another option is do like I did and make your own. I bought a dual & a single and with a little triming it fits fine. You can see it at my picture gallery link in signature. :steering:

Re: pillar gauge pod (ludachriss2)
Price is high but for a triple guage that would PROPERLY fit the pillar I'd be interested. Let us know, will they become a supporting vendor, if not how would we get these?

Re: pillar gauge pod (Mr Mojo)
$24.00 is for the autometer one that screws onto your existing pillar. These would REPLACE your pillar. These do away with that cheap "bolt-on" look and look factory :steering:

Re: pillar gauge pod (Nathan Plemons)
What guages that you dont have now that you cant live without for 90.00 with shipping...Then 30-50$ for each guage? Then you have to wire it and hope it works.
No thanks. :nonod:

Re: pillar gauge pod (dgoodhue)
I would be interested. Have the two gauge pod now and would need a third for boost reference someday.
Your car is obviously stock. Right now I have fuel pressure, air/fuel (yeah, just pretty rotary lights), and an 8k mini tach. Would like to have a boost gauge and a nitrous pressure gauge. (Need the blower first though ;))

Re: pillar gauge pod (Vette92)
So my car is mostly sock. I have had performance and stock lasts longer 9 times out of 10. And touring is good and I plan on it but extra guages are not as good as a V1 and a well kept up ride..

Re: pillar gauge pod (scorp508)
Why do things have to blow up if you keep your car running well..Those guages work great for awhile and show info if you install them correctly. But why do you need to rely on them if you are mostly stock or alittle modded in the motor.. if you are with your car daily and know your car as a friend then all should be fine..
But I will drop this post now since I see that you all know what you want so get them and enjoy....
