FINALLY installed

All gauges are installed and working
High idle is installed and working as well.
Now to get it wired so that I can activate the high idle with my remote start remote. Once I get that to work, the box will be tucked out of sight.

If you're afraid of the pillar blocking your vision, put a screw in the top of the pillar running parallel with the windshield. You can tighten it down to pull the pillar cover closer to the actual pillar and it cuts down on how much of your vision is blocks.

With mine, the edge of the pillar cover is behind the black edge trim on the windshield, so it doesn't block anything that wouldn't have been blocked already.

ok.. thanks. looks like pillar mount pokes out further than black trim.

if you can pull it in to where it blocks the same space. then no problems

In my opinion that pillar (without gauges) is a pretty big blind spot already, I didn't notice anything different after installing mine, I still have to look around it.

Looks good, thanks for the pictures!

Maybe I will get a 3 gauge pillar and move my fuel pressure up there and put the air compressor down by the shifter like you have done. Currently that is where my fuel pressure gauge is.

I'll be moving that gauge shortly. I still want to get a boost gauge and mount it with a single column mount since I can't find a dual and mount the air pressure in the cubby hole by the radio.
