Default Triple pillar pod fitment issue.

I just got my triple pillar pod installed yesterday. It fits perfect in every aspect except where it meets the t-top portion. It overlaps the t-top by an inch. Is this normal?

Looks to me like you'll be fine if you just cut it down.

WOW. . .I've got a double pod and the alignment is a whole lot better than that. Sorry I don't know the manufacturer.

i've had the dual and now tripple pillar pods, both from autometer and both of them have fit perfect. you should be fine with a little trimming though.

Mine fits perfectly and is flush in the area that you describe. Either you don't have it mounted correctly (needs to be moved down) or perhaps you got the version for hardtop cars instead of t-top cars? Don't know what the HT pillar pods look like so I couldn't be sure?
