Hi guys. Just curious what everyones doing for adding gauges. Pillar mounts, vent mount, ect. Care to sharr any pics and advice? Thanks Ryan

I just bought the dual gauge pillar package from Glowshift. They offer several color options and the gauges are dimmable from the interior light switch (if you choose to wire them that way). Glowshift offers plenty of gauge options. I'm installing a cam next month and my car doesn't have the 4 gauge cluster. So, I went with the oil pressure and oil temp gauges. Sorry, no pics yet. I'm still waiting on them to arrive. You'll probably get a lot of good advise on this subject.

I got the same deal! Oil pressure, oil temperature, and pillar shipped for $150! I'm thinking about installing the sensors in Glowshifts oil filter sandwich adapter plate. Seems like an easy install.

I've got the 4 gauge option in my SS. I would be looking for a 2 gauge pod for air fuel and boost. Thinking of going with the pod that replaces the side window defroster. Looks like a great place for 2 gauges

Thanks for sharing. Looks awesome

I liked the defrost vent replacement, too. Looks good and a little more out of the way. I only chose the pillar pods because I want the oil pressure to be easily noticed. I've also seen a dual gauge bezel that replaces the bezel around the speedometer and tachometer. The gauges are located down low and look good, too.

Thank,
Jason

Don, I think he was wanting to see pics of the gauges in a camaro... not the cockpit of a 747.

Here's mine....

Got my Glowshift gauges installed. I still need to install the 02 sensor in my exhaust. The A pillar pod is kinda crappy but it will do the job.
