Default A-Pillar Gauge Pod - Hardtop LS1

I've searched up and down and can't find a definitive answer.
I need a 2 hopefully 3 pod pillar. Everyone I find is for a T-Top car, I had my eye on the autometer one.
Can anyone tell me if it will look ok in a hardtop car?
Thanks.

I've installed a few now on hard top cars. Here are a few pictures of two and three hole guage pods installed. Hope this helps. Fyi dont be scared to sand or shave down the side thickness to make it fit cleaner

The top of it changes drastically.. as the hardtop continues to go towards the rear of the car and the t-top models end at the t-tops.

I have a 2-pod attached to my old hardtop A-pillar plastic if you want it. It's been sitting in my garage doing nothing. If you're interested let me know.

How's the color match on these compared to the stock interior?
