Check Summit Racing, I'm sure they have them. I think it's made my Autometer.

You could always get someone to 'glass it on the a-pillar.

The '93-'02 cars all used the same basic interior panels, except for the doors of course. Firebirds and Camaros are clearly different!

Actually, the a-pillar panel is the same for the 93-02 Firebird and the 97-02 Camaro, hence the same AutoMeter part number for the full pillar gauge pods. The different ones were the 93-96 Camaros, which unfortunately nobody makes a full pillar gauge pod for.

All of the full pillar pods by Autometer, are NOT full replacements. You will still need to drill holes into your existing pillar and mount the pods to it. The only difference, is the full replacement covers the entire pillar, so it's almost impossible to tell it's not factory.

You could always buy a new stock a-pillar molding if you ever did decide to take the gauge pod off.
