I remember seeing in a post sometime back about a company that sells the replacemnet A-Pillar with 2 pods built in. Have looked in search but could not find them. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

You might check with Robert More (Acuth1). Seems he had some for sale once a long time back. He may know where to find one. _________________ "Still Just Truck'in"

As much as I hate to admit it, Dixie Monte Carlo has what you need.
I had an issue with shipping charges with them once and won't buy from them myself, but here's the link.

Thanks Steve,
But I found one that auto meter sells for about $36.00 and I can pick it up down at Alamo Performance here in town.

Mike:
The Auto Meter pod is an add on unit you paint to match. You have to drill holes in your existing trim piece to mount it and to run wires. The ones in the link looked to be a one piece design. Might be worth checking in to. It would be a whole lot easier to mount that way.

Looks like a good option & might look better than the usual bolt-on guages under the dash. _________________ '79 Chevy Corvette,350 sbc- '78 Olds Cutlass Supreme,350 sbo'- 99 Mitsubishi Galant,3.0 V6- '84 Chevy El Camino Conquista,305 sbc
