3 gauge a pillar
Alright, I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this but I have some questions about an a pillar for the 8. I'm looking for a 3 gauge a pillar, I was looking on the net and I only found one and it was carbon fiber and $249.99 which seems a bit ridiculous to me. Anybody know where I can get one cheap?

The one your are thinking of from carbontrix that is 249.99 only holds two gauges (thats if were thinking of the same one). I myself wanted a a pillar pod that held three gauges as well when i started my turbo build, but i only found the carbon fiber a pillar pod by carbontrix that was a little to expensive for just two gauges. My suggestion is to either make your own (fiberglass mold) or use the lotek or racing beat. I hope someone makes an a pillar pod for the 8 thats not 250 haha i would be all over that

I get nervous about pillar pods in the 8 due to the airbag right there, just seems like if it goes off you'll have a nice gauge built into your forehead. But maybe I'm wrong. Also for just 3 gauges nicely mounted there is the RB kit which is less just for the pod itself.

I zoom therefore I am.
with the RB triple gauge pod in the ashtray, the lotek triple gauge pod on the center dash, and people mounting single gauge pods on the steering column, I guess there's never been a demand for someone to make a triple gauge A pillar pod.

i know it's over 200 bucks, but now you don't need to buy a few gauges or the pod to hold them.
