A pillar gauge pod

I have seen the link here before but I am looking for the company that will sell me a single gauge a pillar pod. 2 1/16 pref. If you can help I would appreciate. I know the second gen ones can be used. but before I modify something I would like to try for the correct part. thanks

That's the link....
If you want other opinions, talk to JIMMY54. He used a CRX guage mount and it looks good. (Maybe cheaper?)

The CRX pod from autometer fit perfectly. The only problem i had with it was to hold it in place but that's a problem all pods have.

ok i got the guages @ summit, cant think of the brand name. With out looking at them i think its (top to bottom) volt, water temp, a/f meter. All are digital and not to costly about 35-50$ each. my buddie liked them so much he cut out all the stock stuff from his 65 f250 and went digital, its cool as hell looking in a old truck. he did fuel, oil pres., water temp, volt. stock speedo and a vdo tach on the colum(what the hell for 3500 and its about to blow up)

Damn, those guages look familiar Wonder where you got the idea. The guages are Cyberdyne. The pod looks good. I will be redoing mine when I get back.
