No one has a gauge pod for the center stack??
I hate pillar pods. Too ricey... And I have supras lol. Ironically, I do use pillar pods in diesel trucks because it's completely irrelevant about what people on the outside think... It's a truck and the gauges are work-related IMO.
Last time I had a pillar pod, was in my awd turbo dsm back in 2001. It attracted way too much unwanted attention. Everyone and their brother singled me out onthe streets and tried to race me. That said, I'd love to have a pod above the Ac vents for oil temp, boost and fuel pressure.

I'm going to make a new fiberglass t-top roof liner with the guages built into the area either above the rearview mirror or in place of the sun visor that I never use. Should be interesting, I'll post up if/when I get around to actually building it.
finally got my gauges in last week here are a few pics. autometer phantom nitrous guage mechanical and matching digital shift light stage 2. also a AEM wideband. the triple pillar pod I am very upset with, its a bradn new autometer pod for ttops and you will see what im very mad about

this pic is why im mad. the entire side has a huge hole and where my vent comes out of the stock pillar is a much larger hole then the stock pillar has so I cant get my vent trim piece onto this pod and just looks terrible. pretty pissed for spending $60 on this and looking like this

I am doing a 4L80 swap and decided to do a pillar pod. I don't care for them but needed a place to put a trans-temp gauge. I went with a GlowShift because i liked the blacked out look when they are off and they aren't overpriced. Did an autometer single pod for it so it's not overly noticeable. It helps i have dark tint on the car as well

I meant having to cut holes and drill into the stock pillar. But I think you have to will all the pods for the fbody. But I ordered the glowshift one.
