For all of the newer folks, we had a guy that was going to organize and get us taylor made gauge pillar pods for our trucks. We had to have a pre-order of 60 or so before they would make it. We were all ready and set to go but I guess It ran out of steam. I'm still in for it if we can get this going again.

I may need to hop in on this...I have 8 guages and soon might have to need a 9th....I will have to turn whatever they decide to make into a 1-guage holder but oh well.

He hasn't posted since 8/13/03 so I think he is gone. If every one would like I will re-open contact with the company.

We must have 30 orders for EACH style. The ones we get have already been decided on three 2 1/6". If you want a different style, you'll have to get 30 orders for your style. So far we should have enough for the three 2 1/6".

So what will the actual price for them be? I am very interested in one and may be able to get some of my freinds to buy a couple.

I just e-mailed them but no response yet. It is ok that I act as the go though person with everyone right? TimSpeed and several other members live near by so I hope not. Who would be willing to donate their pillar so they can mold it correctly?

Hey guys I think I am going to do something a bit different for mounting some gauges. I hope by me opting out of the gauge pod build you guys still have enough. I am still brainstorming some other options. Good luck guys!!!
