Default Question about full pillar guage pods

Who has them? And could you provide pics please.

I have a convertible and they say that it wont work with mine but I have seen cars with them that are verts. I want a triple guage pillar pod and was just curious how do they mount to the car?

Thanks.

the molding on the pillar is different on the verts because of the pins for the top, but they make a two gauge pod that wil screw overtop the existing or else you can buy the 3 guage pod and mold it into your vert pillar cover, then paint to match

I have the tools and patients to mold and remake the top to fit...but how much do you think is involved?

just tracing out the outline of the new pillar onto the vert one, and then cutting it a lil smaller that the traceline, check the fit and use fiberglass or plastic weld to bond them together, sand them to a smooth finish and paint with 50resto's mathcing interior paint.... i suppose patience is all you need
