suggestions on pillar pods/ gauges...

Hey guys, I am buying a pillar pod

http://www.uprproducts.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=771

I was just wondering if anybody makes a full pillar with just a single pod.
I can find single pods, but they don't cover the whole pillar. any help with finding one would be awesome because I can't find anything at all. :BangHead: :sleepy1:

i dont think they make a fullpillar for a single pod.

well i havent seen one, did you try autometer?

I found that one too, but it seems as if it does not cover the whole pillar...

then more likely you wont find one, for the simple fact that manufacturers dont make one full pillar for a single pod.

Because I have no need for these, I don't know anything. I found this on the AutoMeter site:
Single Pod (Black)
Product #
10121
Application(s):
1994-2002 Ford Mustang (hard top)

For a Vert:
10126
No pic, though.

I've never come across one and 99% sure they don't make one. If you only got one gauge why not sure a steering column pod?

eliyarbrough · May 27, 2009

Uh, I know I am not smart, but didn't I just post 2? That sorta means they do make them, right? I had the steering wheel pod, but I sold it. Here it is:

They are not a full pillar....the doubles in triples can be had in a version that covers the entire factory a pillar. Gives it a cleaner look.

eliyarbrough · May 27, 2009

Oh, I see what you are saying now. Just needed clarification. Thanks!!

Thanks guys for researching this stuff... I think I'll just do a boost gauge and fuel pressure to take up the space. This is only my 200th post and I feel like I post all of the time

Have you posted a pic of your motor? I'd love to see your KB!!

Javi · May 27, 2009

Postwhore!

nope, I have not posted any pics at all yet.
I have some actual mental issues with ocd so I think everything will look amazing. I'll post pics after I do a meth injection and maybe an anderson powerpipe to get rid of the c&l intake and put the air filter in the fender.

eliyarbrough · May 27, 2009

Cool! Does that ocd mean what I'm thinking? I am very obsessive compulsive disorder & maybe even more mentallym I call it unstable, too! Or it is like something with the brains of your car? I'm not even smart enough to know that!
All I know of is 95SC's KB on his car. His is chrome & look pretty sweet!

I don't mean to compare my pathetic brain to yours, though!!

What I mean is that I bought my car brand new in 94 and it still doesn't have a SINGLE scratch and I'm not exagerating. I took it to the dyno and the dude said it was the cleanest 94 he had ever seen and the interior looked better than what he remembered a new one looked like. However, I don't like chrome... I am going for a sleek look that stands out by not standing out. The kenne bell is black and the only chrome piece on the car is the radiator cap, gt emblems, and flowzilla part of the kb.

eliyarbrough · May 27, 2009

Ooh, I really want to see it now!! Don't know if I've ever seen a black one on a 94-98 before. Oh yeah, well I hope mine is scratch free as well. I just got it back from being repainted, though. Love to see any pics of it!! Sounds pretty awesome!

I just read my post and I sound really cocky, but I really didn't mean it like that. I just wanted to give you an idea of what it looks like... sorry!

eliyarbrough · May 27, 2009

I did not take it that way @ all!! My car had a full & hard life from 95 to early 09, is all I was saying. I'd be proud if my car was like yours, too! Nothing wrong with what you said.

I was trying to joke around. I suck @ that now!!!
