Default triple pillar pod

I am looking into getting a pillar pod for my trans am. From what i have found Autometer makes a triple pillar pod in black. Is anyone running one of these or a different brand? how do they fit? I am also looking into to getting a wideband for the pillar pod. The one i am looking at now is an AEM uego 31-4100. What widebands are you guys running in a pillar pod? Looking for some input on these items or similar items. Thanks

I'm using a glowshift one. I had read about fitment issues with the autometer. The glowshift one is cheaper and fits decently well in mine.

^^^ I see you guys are all motor also, what gauges are you guys running with a tri pod? Not to hijack the thread but I LOVE the look of pillar gauges lol just not sure what gauges would really be relevant.

I run the AEM digital wideband, which I think is a must have for any setup. Knowing your air/fuel.ratio is critical for any performance car. I also run a Glowshift digital fuel pressure gauge. Again, something critical you need to monitor.

I've talked about them in the past, but I'm not a fan of glowshift, but to each their own.

I love AEM gauges, they are expensive, but they are great.

I run autometer gauges. If you want gauges that closely match your oem gauges, look into the Z-series gauges with a red bulb behind them. Right now I'm running sport comp digital gauges and they are nifty.

Ive got the Autometer pillar mount. Im running Autometers Cobalt wideband and Cobalt boost gauge. The other two are Aeroforce Interceptor gauges. Even with the capability to moniter 6 different readings I still feel like it's not enough!
Autometer and Aeroforce put out great products. And yes I know in the pic the Aeroforces are all reading the same thing. I was setting them up.

The Glowshift fuel pressure gauge has worked great for me. With that said, I understand there are much better gauges out there. My AEM wideband is outstanding, and any future gauges will be AEM.
