Your thoughts on these a pillars?

["Turbo-T"]

www.gaugepods.com // Lotek Inc.

I am interested in one of these, how is the quality of this product?

South East Turbo Performance has the three gauge a pillar pod. Replaces the entire a pillar, not just a pod that glues/screws on. Might have the two also.

Plus, you can get it already painted in any color that these cars come in.

Buick, turbo buick, grand national, ttype, gnx, 3.8, regal, 84-87

who knows, they might use the lotek for all i know...

Lotek sucks. You'll need to bend it to fit a whole lot.

The 3 gauge pillar is a POS. Has to be cut to fit a t-top car and when it gets in the sun, it warps badly. Looks liks sh!t.

I have the 3 pillar as well and also concur that its trash.
Must be trimmedup top to lay right and it does not wrap around over toward the door window side which leaves a gap that look lik garbage.
Another thing the mounting screws are very close to the gauge bezel and you must take car when removing the pod to not nick,chip, etc the bezel.
But its the only one out there that I know of...go figure

I got a triple from SE, seems pretty good to me. Plus they paint it for you.

Yeah, I dont have a problem with my triple from SE.

Fits good, matches well. I think some people are a little too picky, if its not "perfect" its nothing a little toying around wont take care of.

And your welcome for the link... :biggrin:

i have to disagree. the 3 piller gauge pod isnt to bad. the only problem is it does not wrap around over toward the door window side which leaves a gap but its very small and if adjusted right it fits and looks ok. i can take pictures of mine it looks good to me.

I just put mine in a couple of weeks ago. It's not a factory fit of course, but I didn't think it was bad. Mine pulled in nice and flush so you can't see any wires or anything. The bottom screw was kind of a pain, but that was about it.

+1 on that bottom screw but mine is a PITA due to the 3 gauge piller.

No problem. Mine looks just like the pics posted above as far as fitment goes... except mines burgundy.

So which would be better overall? The full pillar style or the stick on/screw on ones? BTW I have a hard top if that helps.
