PILLAR POD cover your keyboards before you open this thread
OMG!! My pillar pod looks fabulous guys!!! LOL I assume the pictured one is mine
can't wait to get it installed! Great job and keep up the great work!
Excellent work guys, both projects look great
! I followed your other thread about the pillar pods and I’m glad your efforts were not in vain. Looking forward to the other goodies being developed

Here's another cell vid of the exhaust that Rob sent me

BTW, For everyone else, I'm not sure if Jon pointed out, there is a core charge of $50 for these if you don't send in your existing pillar. Only way we can keep the price down since that's what it cost for us to run around looking for them and then pay shipping on top of that.
Hope everyone is as stoked about how they look as I am and thank you to those who have already commented about how they look and the work we are doing. It really means a lot and helps us keep doing this.

a lot of people have been asking about having their other side painted to match. I will call the painter tomorrow and see what that will cost, I would have him just spray it with the pillar pods, which may or may not save on cost. Now would be a good time to mention that to match this color and have a comparable if not better then Mercedes Benz paint, we have decided we need to use the best. The best happens to be a Lesonal two stage primmer,and a 3 stage Sikkens paint (colors other then black), followed by 2-3 coats of clear, and wet sanded between each coat. NOT CHEAP and labor intensive, this isn't krylon, some argue this paint is better then house of colors, regardless we are getting what I believe to be a very fair price on the paint work. I am sure the same will be true when it comes to the blank (passenger side pillar). Also worth mentioning it isn't as easy as painting it, we will have to go through with a glazing or finishing filler, sand, fill, sand and so on till it matches the pillar pod (a little thicker, and no pattern). For those who already have theirs painted, and shipped out once you receive it, if you decide you want the blank painted I am sure we can work something out.
A price chart for members (still slightly discounted, but not group members pricing) will be sent to FP and hopefully posted to the rest of the forum, It will include pricing for single, dual, triple, and center console, as well as member pricing for upcoming projects. This pricing will remain for a month or two until our website is up and running.

Have you posted a price for them and I just can't see it?
Do you have a price for the up and comming dual setup?
When will the dual pods be available?
I too only need the room for 2 guages.
Enjoy the Ride...

Well, all i can say is WOW! I finally got my pillar pod back and installed and the pictures do not do this fine piece of work JUSTICE!!! Seriously guys, whomever was on the bubble about it all I can tell you is, it was well worth the wait and the money!! It's not bulky and you can hardly tell its there from the drivers side and frontal view IMO. All the gauges are facing you and stepped perfect. The paint matches the exterior perfect! IMO, it almost looks like it "belongs" in the car. There is very little blindspot if any and it does not block the side window defrost vent (which i was worried about). I couldn't ask for a better pillar pod. Thanks Jonny! Way to step up and produce.

Doesnt the boost seem odd? There are a few time I would have expected lower boost - like going fairly slow and turning but your boost seemed fairly high.
Maybe the vid was a bit deceptive being at night.Guess I need to read on and see if these are available yet...

Johnny,
Will you have the digital vaccume/boost gauge also? That and a digital A/F with a IAT or oil pressure gauge would be a sweet combo. Thanks for all the work in getting the pillars and gauges out. How soon will it be before you have pricing and availability on the gauges?
