A-Pillar Install Instructions
Does anyone have a good link to install instructions for an autometer 2002 gauge pillar? I would love a link so that I can do the install tonight. The search only return 9 hits for the word "pillar" since the 7/2004 downgrade of software. 
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out here.

Well heres how I did mine. I'm refering to the dual gauge pod.
Remove the factory a-pillar, just held to the pillar by 4 spring clips, grab and pull. Now take you new gauge pod and slip it over the factory piece. Once everythig is lined up, I marked and drilled holes for the locator/push pins. I just positioned one at the top of the pilar, and the rest just got evenly located down the front and backsides of the pillar pod assembly. When I mounted mine up, the autometer piece had a little bit of slop in the sides, so I used 3M autobody tape (red backing) to make both pieces mate perfectly. Haven't had a problem yet.
