Yep, that's it. The fit is very good and it has provisions for the mike so you can talk to the Nav lady (not that she understands that well
)

They look like slip over pillars, as in they just slip over the stock one. 
I didn't pay 50k to stick on a guage pillar like a ricer, not that I need a pillar yet. Anyone make a pillar that replaces the stock one??
The fit at the top and bottom look....well....terrible to be honest. Sorry guys.

I'm surprised no one has done away with the dash speaker and made something to hold 2 pods in there out of fiberglass.

No offense but if I can see it in the off angle shots in 250x300 pics I can see it worse in person.
It's just my preference I've never liked the slip on style. If you like it, then it's perfect for you.
