Pillar Guages

I was wondering what people recommend for A pillar guages. I was thinking of finding one with tach, boost, EGT and trans temp. Any suggestions?

They only make a double for 1st gens, but you can get a double and a single and put them together, be carful which one you get, the one i got is a glow-shift i think and the angle sucks.

Auto Zone and Advance Auto Parts have a universal single and dual pod set up for the a piller. I think you can get a triple from Ebay, I'm sure of it.

x2 on the autometer pod. I have never seen a tripple pod. I made my own quad pod with some fiberglass.

Glowshift's (at least the ones my son just bought) come with angling collars so you can fix the angle.
I have a new 2 gauge pod in the garage because I can't decide on what gauges to put in it!!!! I have had it for about 7 years....

Mark, are you indecisive, or you just can't figure it out?

Triple cluster on the dash is nice too. Can still see the edge of the hood over them so no visibility issues. Boost, Trans temp, EGT

Got the pod from summit for $20, took a little grinding of the underside edges to get it to conform the the contours of the dash. Lighting for gauges is hooked into heater control lighting so it goes down when I turn down the dash lighting.

Excuse the difference in gauge brands
