      I thought ATS was going to make them, but I have yet to see a finished product. I don't think anyone in currently making them. Maybe some others will chime in.

      Andy thanks for the reply. I e-mailed ATS about these a few months ago. They dropped that project and have decided not to pursue building them. Chris

      I talked with Tyler at ATS today and he confirmed that they are not going to make these.

      So as of now we are going to start looking into manufacturing these.

      How many gauges are people looking to put into these?

      we do custom molded a-pillar pods all the time. We just use the stock panel and a couple of universal pods and mod the hell out of them to fit the stock a-pillar then use our special "liquid plastic" to mold it all together and make it look like a stock piece.

      I'm interested in a three-gauge pod for my 69 A-body. Is this something you can fabricate?

      I would be intersted in maybe a 2 gauge pillar pod if someone makes it. Any more than 2 gauges looks funny, IMO. My fuel pressure and boost gauges would look good there.

      There are two ways to do it, one is to make a custom pod that just screws to the OEM pillar or you can acutally mold the pod to the OEM pillar and have it look like something that GM would have produced.

      What does it cost for something like that? What size gauges does it hold? I'm looking for stock look not CF. I am also looking for the molded ones not the screw on ones. Please price me for both a 2 gauge and 3 gauge pod. I will look at the car tonight and see which I would like better. Chris

      I use a mustang one, bought it from Summit (ATM-10100). It fits great. Just used a heat gun to spread the base a little.

      I will price out how much to do it for 2 and 3 gauges.

      If you can send me the pillar and the universal pods (they are cheap on ebay) and a return shipping slip is the way we usually do out of town work for customers

      Any more info on getting some first gen pillar pods made? I would be more then happy to send out a new a-pillar trim panel to have it modified for 2 gauges, assuming the price is reasonable.
