Arrow A-Pillar Guage Pods

So I just searched for the best guage pillars and it seems like alot of people went with autometer. Is there another brand someone would recommend?

I didnt like the autometer because the little hole for the round vent at the bottom is over sized so it dont look good imo, I went with a triple gauge pod by speedhut. It fits ok. But I cut it up and cut the stock piller up and im molding them together.

I don't care about the price, just was wondering if someone makes a version that replaces the original piece all together with out screws.

Glow guages does have one but stay far away from their guages though..I bought a set of four for my pod and once I installed them the lights went out. Horse **** worksmanship!!

I bought a Glow Gauges pod and it fit like total crap. The standard side gauges were totally loose in their pods and the contours did not match up with the existing pillar. I ended up ordering an autometer and seling the glow pillar on ebay.

Thanks for the info mycamaross! Looks like autometer is the way to go. I have the new AEM digital guages on the way.

You can, just search InfiniteReality. There is a write up on the conversion.
