Pillar trim

Hey guys-
The previous owner broke groove the retainer clips slide into on the driverside a-pillar trim. It's been epoxied several times but may need to be replaced. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could order one on line in tan? Thanks

Order any color, go to NAPA and get the Cummins tan engine spray paint and it should match almost perfect. It worked well when I painted my gauge pillar.

I believe the a-pillar trim is made from abs plastic. Mine was broken like you described and I glued it up with a sliver of abs plumbing pipe as a backer tab.

You may see if somebody on here has one laying around from replacing it with a guaged one...just a thought.

Are the gauged pillars a full replacement?

I'm currently running a quadzilla commander but do to several failed attempts by quadzilla to fix problems with the unit, it will be discarded when funds allow for a more reliable monitoring system. I've got some digital gauges in mind that would work well in a pillar mount.

If the gauged ones are not an overlay I think I'll have no problem waiting until I change over.

Go to Genos garage. They have gauge panels and the correct paint.

I have read that some are overlays, like mine, and others aren't or are installed without overlaying the original.
