Pillar gauge pods............ Any interest? - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

1) http://www.percyshp.com/HyperFiber.html
Now it's easy to make a DEVO hat.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_dome

2) i would so do this (make the pillars myself) if my crap was together.

3) i am ASSuming that "getting 50 people together" means we would have to put money down first?

i am sincererly and seriously interested and would definitely pay in advance as long as it is a quality product as i need a place to mount gauges w/out drilling into the dash in any way. i will accept 3 holes instead of my originially desired 4 holes if this helps the situation any.

I'm with you totally. Since we are pretty close on the triples, I'll call him and try to hammer out the details. I'm sure this will all go through him as far as ordering and everything else. he has a diesel performance shop in Texas called Complete Performance. I will take pictures of mine tonight because I haven't recieved any from him through email yet.

pcmcobra · 06-18-2010, 12:05 AM

I would buy one w/ 3

Fixwhataintbroke · 06-18-2010, 12:25 AM

I'd likely go with three, but pictures would be nice first, before i fully decide

bikes&bowties · 06-18-2010, 02:09 AM

dude this would be so awesome if they are really nice!!! i want 3 but i'd take anything from 2-4 if I got the chance...

dropd80s · 06-18-2010, 08:28 AM

Pics would be awesome. BTW are these fiberglass or ABS? Also are these a complete replacement for the pillar, a cover that goes on top of the entire existing pillar, or just a pod that goes on top over a section of the pillar? I wonder how many times I could say pillar in one post....

**Dieselwrencher** · 06-21-2010, 04:27 PM

Ok, here are some pics. This ford one is a slip over style. I can check to see if the chevy ones can be made as a replacement but I'm doubting it.

85burb · 06-22-2010, 12:32 AM

Looks good. Would for sure go for one.

Fixwhataintbroke · 06-22-2010, 03:58 AM

Morningman · 06-22-2010, 08:32 PM

**Dieselwrencher** · 06-22-2010, 10:27 PM

the top two look useless, unless your tall and head is almost touching the roof

87chevy.com · 06-24-2010, 12:03 AM

haha, but you missed the point, its for a ford... haha

**Dieselwrencher** · 06-24-2010, 04:34 PM

Yep it's a ford, with a real engine in it.

It isn't as bad as you'd think. I put my not so important gauge there. It is sure better than a gauge on the floor.

Or screwed to the dash

junkyardjohn · 06-25-2010, 09:10 AM

Yep... I'd take one at least.. 3 pod.. Sign me up scotty. John

**Dieselwrencher** · 06-25-2010, 04:47 PM

Ok guys, we're really close. Would the people who voted for a quad and dual settle for a triple? If so we would only be 13 away from our goal of 50.

canadian trucker · 06-25-2010, 08:32 PM

count me in on a 3 pod please

Toops · 06-29-2010, 02:32 AM

I am interested in a 3 or 4 pod. And idea on how much they will run?

**Dieselwrencher** · 06-29-2010, 05:19 PM

$75 shipped I'm pretty sure.

Morningman · 06-30-2010, 09:43 PM

Put me down for Qty2 of the 3 pods

bikes&bowties · 07-03-2010, 12:16 AM

Bump.... we are close anyway to start an order list... I want two 3 gauge pods.. im sure others do to... that would put us up to or close to the 50 per order mark...
