I had a 3 gauge piller for my wifes 01. Fit real nice. I had plans with her car until she said she dont want all that crazy hp. So i bought my own,04 and was going to use the piller gauge. Well, the top fits good, but the bottom, the molding is diff. It was two long also to fit in.

1) Remove your A-pillar piece and compare the edges of your triple pod to your OEM piece.
2) Then use a hair dryer to heat up the edges of the gauge pod until it becomes pliable.
3) Shape the edge with a gloved hand until it conforms to the proper shape then cut off the excess.

Step 1. By the guage pod you want
Step 2. Remove your factory a-pilar cover
Step 3. Send both the Dennis at Double D with a check
He will return one that looks factory
The problem with the overlays is that they look cheap.
You have to hold them on with buttons and
You your vent cover (for the drivers window) is under the gauge pod overlay.
If you send it to Dennis it comes back with a piece that looks factory and snaps right in.
